Jeramie Ellingsen lives with her husband in a float house on the shores of Hague Lake, within the ancestral territories of the ƛohos (Klahoose),ɬəʔamɛn (Tla’amin) and xʷɛmaɬkʷu (Homalco) First Nations. Her artistic practices centre on process-based handbuilt ceramics and wheel-thrown, then manipulated work. She adorns wheel-thrown ceramics with underglaze, etching, carving, plants, and textiles. Ceramics offer a flow-based, therapeutic process and each piece expresses her interior world and the world around her. Informed and inspired by intergenerational, Indigenous clay artists from Oaxaca, Mexico, Jeramie creates one-of-a-kind functional and sculptural work. Her work reflects outwardly, her interior world and her lakefront home informs the visualized sense of place present in each piece. By making everyday objects slowly and with intention, she opposes the capitalist industrial complex from her small, unfinished studio.
