Lauren Scott
Hand-builds stoneware vessels under the name skepstof, shaped between Stilbaai and Prince Albert.
Biography
Lauren Scott makes hand-built stoneware under the name skepstof.
Her vessels are coiled and pinched over days, then fired long. The forms come from two places she knows well: the coast at Stilbaai and the dry ground of Prince Albert.
Lauren trained as a chef in Stellenbosch, and makes the KAROOMYS gelato in the same house.
Statement
“Clay and gelato ask for the same thing: patience, good material, and knowing when to stop. A vessel is finished when it sits right in two hands.”
