Emma Smith (Jerseyville, ON)
Emma Smith is a ceramic artist and creative thinker from Ontario, Canada. Growing up in the shadow of the Niagara Escarpment, she aims to celebrate the significance of place, environment, and land, through her life philosophy and artistic practice. She explores this theme largely through hand-built, woodfired ceramics, decorated with stylized patterns inspired by her daily life. Her work is made to be experienced quietly, encouraging moments of contemplation and reflection.
Emma has exhibited her work widely and received numerous awards. She is also a ceramics instructor who operates her small gallery in Jerseyville, ON.
