About Conversations Orange No 1

In brilliant orange, the elegant organic curves of this ceramic vessel by Loren Kaplan appear almost figurative. This is part of a new series called, ‘Conversations’ created by the Toronto-based ceramicist. When exhibited in pairs, these pieces seem to be having a ‘conversation.’ This is number one of two.

“I make vessels because containers are about potential…defined spaces of emptiness that can be filled with something…or nothing.” Loren Kaplan

In 1995 she established a studio and began a teaching career with the Visual Arts and Crafts Academy in Johannesburg.
