Loren Kaplan Art
Loren Kaplan is a South African ceramic artist and teacher who now lives in Toronto. Kaplan earned a BFA from the University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, and studied at the Kim Sacks School of Ceramics. In 1995, she established her own studio and began a teaching career. She spent 10 years working for the Visual Arts and Crafts Academy in Johannesburg before creating her own ceramics business. Kaplan creates thrown or hand-built textured and organic pieces in porcelain and stoneware. Her pieces range in size and form, with delicate botanical patterned carvings. Kaplan has exhibited regularly in South Africa and Toronto and received awards from the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition and the Vita Craft Award at the African Window in Cape Town and Johannesburg. Her work is held in many private collections and in the South African Constitutional Court Art Collection.
