Jennefer Hoffmann
Jennefer Hoffmann is a ceramic artist based in Chicago, USA. After studying at Parsons School of Design in New York and working for many years for various fashion designers, including Duckie Brown, A Détacher and BLESS, it was while working with the fashion designer Miguel Adrover that she began to develop her own ceramic practice.
Her work is inspired by the continual discovery and rediscovery of the community around her; the use of new configurations of ancient materials like fabric and clay; the telling of unexpected stories; and the quiet resonance of feelings in objects. Hoffmann is drawn to the idea of the potential held within an object and seeks to allow the viewer to have their own dialogue with the work based on their personal experiences.
