Carina Jern
Carina is an accomplished and experienced ceramist with a passion for Ikebana and Japanese ceramics. She produces magnificent pieces for; Ikebana (Japanese flower arranging), Kokedama (moss ball display), Kusamono (1 or a few plants displayed alone), Shitakusa (accent plant to a bonsai), and also containers for bonsai trees.
Born and raised in Gothenburg, Sweden, in 2003 Carina graduated from 2 years of Art school and soon after, joined and worked with the ceramic group "22ans keramik". Her passion and apparent success drive her to found her own studio in 2008, where she worked mainly with ‘raku’ technique of firing ceramics.
After working with Ikebana arrangements at Aeroseum museum in Säve 2005, Carina continued with creating pots for also Kokedama and Kusamono.
‘I really like the appearance from raku but mostly I burn in stoneware. I love to experiment with different glazes, designs and shapes. Therefore, I never do two pieces exactly alike’.
Carina has just completed a month staying and working in Tokoname, Japan, with some of the world's most popular bonsai potters such as Shuhu - Hidemi Kataoka. There she further honed her skills and we very much look forward to what the future brings!
Unique handmade art from the West coast of Sweden.
