Dani Iwami embraces creativity as a reflection of life’s most authentic moments, channeling her passion through art, fashion, and sports culture. She inspires others to play, speak up, and give their all to what truly matters.

As a ceramic artist based in Long Beach, CA, Dani relies on intuition, discipline, and emotion to shape tangible expressions of her creative spirit. Through her work, she creates moments of stillness and a sense of belonging—offering a soft place to land.

She founded DANIKAWAIISTUDIOS as a love letter to the woman she hopes to become—an artist, a connector, a student, and a teacher. More than a studio, it is a vessel for community, fostering connection through workshops, collaborations, and thoughtfully crafted ceramic collections.
