Collection: Lauren Joffe
Lauren’s works are built by hand, using the coiling technique and they are fired in a kiln at a temperature of 1080–1250°C. She is primarily concerned with exploring the form and surfaces of her objects through mark making and texture. She considers the relationship of her pieces in still life compositions and prefers to make simple forms and use a limited colour palette in order to explore form through lines, tone, shadow and pattern. The surfaces of her pieces are all hand painted and the act of mark making is a very slow and meditative process, with fluid marks applied in varying depths to create quiet shifts in the surface from gloss to matte.
