ELLA BENDRUPS
-
Ella Bendrups is an emerging ceramic artist who creates innate forms refined for a modern context. Ella’s practice explores ancient clay and stone artefacts and their ability to transcend the times and cultures in which they were created. She embraces the expressive nature of hand-building, pinching, coiling, and carving clay to highlight the maker’s touch.
With a background in styling supported by studies in Communication Design and Interior Design and Decoration at RMIT University, Ella began social ceramics classes in late 2015 before progressing to a self-led explorative practice. Ella hand builds each of her pieces in a small home studio in Naarm’s/Melbourne’s inner North.
