Biography

Paula I. Jozwiak lives and works in Modeligo, Co. Waterford. She obtained a Master of Arts at the Wroclaw Academy of Fine Arts in Ceramics Design, with a Rector’s honourable mention. She has also received from Ceramics Ireland The Irish Contemporary Ceramics Award in 2011. Paula’s beautiful porcelain creations have been exhibited nationally and internationally.

Her most recent project, these finely detailed vessels are inspired by pre-historic Pomeranian ceramics (Iron Age in Central Europe, 8th-2nd century BC). Particular admiration was aroused by the burial vessels with faces, and or individual physiognomy. Found in tombs made of stone and earth, amongst other preserved relics, in present day Poland they were also often decorated with jewellery.

Paula has undertaken a specific kind of reconstruction, where she has used modern day methods and technologies to give the ancient works a new contemporary look.

While original works were hand-built of clay, and illustrations on the urns were mostly engraved, Paula uses porcelain slip to form the fine cast body and paints her pieces with underglaze to complete the illustration.
