The thing is that with fired ceramics, just as glazes differ from
paints, the photosensitive material must leave a substance that when
fired (at high temperature) leaves an image.  The high temperature will
likely destroy photographic materials typically used.

But it can and has been done well.
A person to contact about this would be Galina Manikova of Oslo Norway. 
She may keep up with this list; her E-mail adress should be
galina@online.no
