Traditional wood firing explored through contemporary ceramic practice.
Holly Rose Morgan is a ceramic artist based in Te Matau a Māui. Her practice pushes traditional techniques while asking how we consume ceramics and understand vessels in a modern context. She balances localism, functionality, conceptual depth and global ceramic heritage. Holly is an experienced wood firer whose work was recently exhibited in the solo exhibition Burning Ground at Hastings City Art Gallery. In 2026 she will undertake a three month residency in Faenza, Italy to expand her practice.
