Wood firing potter Sergei Shatrov is the Superior (Abbot) of a Russian Orthodox Church monastic community for men, located near Bombala, about 2 hours drive from Canberra.

See map or locate Sergei's marker on the World Map of woodfire kilns.

"My aim in my work is simply practical and functional. My life in the monastery is reflected strongly in how I work with clay and the results I achieve from my kiln"    -  Sergei Shatrov
