Loren Kaplan
Carved Stoneware Vessel No 3 - decorative, handcrafted, ceramic vessel

2024

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 style. This tall tear-drop-shaped series is handcrafted, the visibly tactile vertical pattern also carved by hand. The color is a creamy white, 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.
