About Jared Ziegenbein
Jared graduated in 2016 from Valdosta State University, with a BFA in Art with an emphasis in ceramics. His previous ceramic experience includes serving as production manager at Little River Studio in Hahira, GA and as a Valdosta State University ceramic studio assistant.
Jared explains, “As an artist and functional potter I create utilitarian forms with a clean and simple aesthetic, utilizing the surfaces of the work to reflect an appreciation of Asian culture, ceramic tradition, and natural pattern. Throughout the process of exploring modest forms and motifs, I apply my knowledge of engineering to create works that interact in complex constructions, which appear effortless and intuitive. I place great value on the usability of my work, therefore I design pieces that fit my aesthetic sensibilities and are a pleasure to use.”
