Artist Jeffrey Loura’s work is always a pleasure to see when it comes up in my Instagram feed. If you haven’t seen Jeffrey’s work then you are in for a new discovery. I was instantly struck by the shapes and figures going from thick to thin. Once you are done with the silhouette of the pieces, your are then treated to an engagement with the colors and textures found on the surface. They look incredible in groupings in different heights. If you have the time, go take a look at Jeffrey’s work, links at the bottom of the page.
“New York based artist, Jeffrey Loura, creates organic, elemental vessels. Jeffrey moved to New York in 1996 to earn his BFA at Parsons School of Design, where he studied Illustration. He began throwing ceramics five years later in 2001. These atmospheric hand-thrown ceramics are aesthetically modern and primitive. The focus of the work is the idea of familiarity and opposing concepts; individualism vs community; female vs male; life vs death. These quiet, peaceful forms are the result.”
