About the Item
This contemporary white ceramic vessel is handmade.
Loren Kaplan creates uniquely beautiful ceramics. Her elegant forms are inspired by nature; each design has found the sweet spot between traditional, historical, and modern styles. This tall tear-drop-shaped series is handcrafted, the visibly tactile curvaceous pattern also carved by hand. The color is a neutral off-white, and the surface is glazed. The award-winning ceramicist uses the vessel as a metaphor for potential; the empty container that can be filled. One of a series.
“In my work, I integrate symbolic, visual, tactile and spiritual values – blending form, function and meaning.” Loren Kaplan
Loren Kaplan earned a BFA from the University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, and studied at the Kim Sacks School of Ceramics. In 1995 she established a studio and began a teaching career with the Visual Arts and Crafts Academy in Johannesburg. Kaplan has exhibited regularly in South Africa, Canada, and the US and has received numerous awards. Her work is held in many private collections and in the South African Constitutional Court Art Collection.

Passage VII - intricate, hand-shaped, porcelain clay wall relief
By Paula Murray
Located in Bloomfield, ON
In her Quebec studio, ceramic artist Paula Murray uses her own recipe for porcelain clay that she hand-shapes into beautiful and intricate pieces. Inspired by forms and patterns found in nature, Murray’s work often reflects the deeply spiritual connection between humans and the natural world.
The “Passage” series of vessels are boat-like in form. Murray does own a collection of canoes. “Transition and pods are other titles I used with this series- the idea of leaving one place - for another; the shell that held a life that is no longer of use...” Paula Murray
She has received many honours and international awards and was elected into the RCA in 2006. Murray’s work has been gifted by the Canadian government to dignitaries such as US President George W. Bush and UN Secretary Kofi Annan. Murray’s pieces can be found in private and public collections including the Canadian Museum of Civilization, the Banff Centre, the Gardiner Museum, Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, the Official Residence of the Prime Minister in Canada and Canada House...
