2010’S FOUNDED STUDIO
CERAMICIST
Janaki grew up in the prairies of Alberta and on the coast of British Columbia. The daughter of artists, she attended the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design where she studied ceramics. Each of her pieces is hand-thrown and hand-glazed so no two are exactly alike. Each work carries its own raw identity with a quiet and monochromatic aesthetic that feels as if it has survived from another time and place. Being visually insatiable, she is strongly influenced by nature and light – loving dirt, growing plants in it, and making ceramics out of it.
