MANDY GARGIULO
Mandy Gargiulo is a ceramic artist based in Stoke, Nelson. Working exclusively with porcelain, mandy draws inspiration for her ceramics from the shapes of her natural surroundings. Flowers, leaves and the sea are all strong influences on her work. Celebrating what she terms the “beautiful imperfections of nature” no two pieces of work she creates are identical. Mandy’s pieces show the signs of the hand that has made them and the personality and materiality of porcelain as a medium. Juxtaposing the crisp brittleness of the unglazed exterior of her bowls and vases with soft, smooth, glazed interiors, Mandy’s pieces encapsulate and enhance the perfect imperfections of the natural world. Mandy was awarded the Supreme Award at the NZ Ceramics National Exhibition 2018.
