Loren Kaplan

Loren has been a practicing ceramic artist and teacher since the 90’s and has achieved international recognition for her work.  She was born in South Africa and moved to Toronto in 2013.   She has always tried to look at the making and use of ceramics outside the traditional way.  Her interest is in the sensual, bodily qualities of the forms, and what they feel like against your skin and fingers. And in her work, the evidence of the silence, the meditation, the quiet contemplation and the pace of creating are all felt and seen. Her work demands to be touched and held.  She has exhibited often and her work has been sold through galleries in Canada, South Africa and the US.
