About

​

Hannah Vorrath-Pajak is an Australian potter and visual artist based in Kaurna Country, South Australia. She works in porcelain, making wheel thrown functional ware and exhibition-based objects that explore ceramic traditions, craft skills and her cultural heritage.

 

Her focus on porcelain and wheel thrown domestic objects was supported by a mentorship opportunity with Susan Frost that helped her to solidify themes within her making, creating a clear path of inquiry for future work. Hannah has undertaken residencies in both Tasmania and Japan, finding great value in connecting with other practitioners and learning a variety of ceramic techniques.

 

After graduating with a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Ceramics) from the University of South Australia in 2017, Hannah went on to do a two-year Associate Training Program at JamFactory. After spending a further two years there as a tenant, Hannah is now working from her home studio and teaches wheel throwing at JamFactory's ceramics studio.
