Jan Vogelpoel

Melbourne based artist Jan Vogelpoel hand builds one-off sculptural pieces that reflect her love of organic shapes and graphic lines.

Jan has worked with clay for over 20 years, honing her skills under the direction of famed Capetonian ceramicist Barbara Jackson and teacher Karen Scott. Jan’s work reflects her passion for the process of bringing an idea to life through manipulating and building pieces that carry the energy of nature and the maker, which is something she finds both grounding and challenging, but ultimately rewarding.

Her work as a stylist has fuelled her love for interior design, she is drawn to Mid-Century design and the restrained approach of the Japanese aesthetic, all of which influence her work.
