About Me

Introduction

I was born in the Philippines, grew up in Australia, lived in London and now currently residing in Rome, Italy. My background began in Media, working in television for over a decade before discovering and deciding to pursue my interest in ceramics and become a maker. My pottery journey began in 2012 and continues to this day.

 

My Artist Statement

Jenni Oh Crafts was borne out of a desire to provide an alternative to mass-produced functional ceramic wares. With a keen interest in sustaining a handicraft style within a modern context, the aim is to bring focus back to the enriching nature of handmade items.

Foremost, the principle behind my work is contemporary simplicity grounded in a belief that even our everyday objects should enhance the spaces they inhabit.

My aesthetic falls somewhere between European and Eastern with wide-ranging influences from Japanese, Korean and Chinese ancient ceramics to Scandinavian and mid-century design, Bauhaus and even kawaii culture. The ceramics, mostly utilitarian in nature are also decorative and seek to sing in the spaces they occupy.
