Lowri is an award-winning artist who works from her studio in Cardiff.  She creates works in bone china and porcelain, creating collections of china teacups, jugs, vases and plates which are then characterised by slanted openings and decorated with ink and watercolour drawings.

Her work stems from references of china displays on Welsh dressers, collections of souvenirs, and vibrant illustrations of birds drawn from Victorian taxidermy collections. These objects and images often refer to a sense of place by reviving iconography and symbolism, which have a deep connection to her roots. Her work can be seen in collections at the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff and the Ceramics Collection at Aberystwyth Arts Centre.

Mae Lowri’n artist sydd wedi ennill gwobrau ac yn gweithio o’i stiwdio yng Nghaerdydd. Mae’n creu gwaith mewn tsieni asgwrn a phorslen, ac yn creu cwpanau te, jygiau, fasau a phlatiau tsieni ag iddyn nhw agoriadau ar oleddf nodweddiadol ac wedi’u haddurno â lluniadau inc a dyfrlliw.

Mae ei gwaith yn deillio o gyfeiriadaeth at tsieni ar ddreseli Cymreig, casgliadau o gofroddion, a darluniadau lliwgar o adar wedi’u tynnu o gasgliadau tacsidermi Fictoraidd. Mae’r gwrthrychau a’r delweddau hyn yn cyfeirio’n aml at yr ymdeimlad o leoliad drwy adfywio iconograffig a symbolaeth, ag iddyn nhw gysylltiad dwfn â’u gwreiddiau. Mae modd gweld ei gwaith mewn casgliadau yn Amgueddfa Genedlaethol Caerdydd a Chasgliad Cerameg Canolfan Celfyddydau Aberystwyth.
