Linh Le
Our artist collective founder crafts hand-built ceramics, woven textiles, and illustrations that champion the art of slow craft — celebrating tactile textures, thoughtful processes, and one-of-a-kind handmade pieces.
I’m Linh Le — Vietnamese by heritage, born and raised in Germany, now calling London home. I adore nature, travel, and above all, slow crafting. As a child I watched my father and uncles sketch cartoons and comics while my aunt decorated candles and loved making things by hand. So it’s only natural that I’d pick up a brush: I grew up finding joy in painting and multiple other crafts.”
“As much as I am a travel bug, I am also a home body. There is nothing better than coming back to your own space after all the adventures to relax and process everything that you’ve experienced. So having a home that gives you joy and peace has always been important to me and most of my art, I’ve made for my home.”
“I find joy in the little things, such as that one plate that you love eating from to that scented candle that was hand poured and that canvas that hangs on your wall, reminding you of that trip you took last summer.
I’m proudly multi passionate: painting and drawing let me capture the beauty of the places I travel to, while working with ceramics gives me a deep sense of peace and comfort.”
“I want to encourage people to slow down in life and find the time to enjoy crafting and the uniqueness of the art they produce. And then I want to bring that community of slow craft artists together, either online or in person, to share their journey, to get recognised for what they are making and to promote the joy of handmade. That is why I started ArteliLe Collective.”
