KATRIONA DRIJBER

Katriona Drijber is a ceramic artist who was born and raised in the small coal mining town of Elkford in British Columbia, Canada. Drijber was only sixteen when she graduated high school and left home to attend Kootenay School of the Arts. It was here that she took her first clay class and began a lifelong fascination with ceramics. Since then, Katriona has travelled all around the world making and studying ceramics, including periods of time spent in Denmark, Korea, China, and the United States. She has completed many residencies, including the prestigious long term residency at the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Montana. However, the mountains of Canada called her home, and she currently maintains her studio practice in the Crowsnest Pass.
