Mandy Gargiulo is a contemporary ceramic artist based in Nelson, New Zealand.

Working exclusively with porcelain, Mandy creates forms inspired by the shapes and textures of her natural surrounds. Her practice is rooted in nature’s perfect imperfections; each piece unique, carrying the memory of the place and the imprint of the hand that shaped it.

With a quiet, intuitive approach to making, she allows her creative process to guide her, balancing precision with a deep connection to the land. The result is work that feels both considered and organic; objects that hold space for beauty, stillness and imagination.
