Weaver, Ceramist. Ngaruawahia, NZ.
Jessica Moughan’s work seeks to examine connections between the somatic experience of traditional craft, in conjunction with the utilisation of organic material, as modalities of healing. Residing in Aotearoa, New Zealand, she has developed a deep connection to the land where she lives. Through her work with natural materials, she explores the possibility that the repetitive nature of ancestral crafts such as weaving, intrinsically hold the power to heal both the practitioner and viewer of the final work. Despite being in her first year as an emerging self-taught artist, Jessica’s work has been already been selected as a finalist in two National Contemporary Art Awards.
The full range of Jess’s works in this exhibition are now available through the webstore pages on this site.
