Turkish born Jenny Orchard spent her childhood and youth in Zimbabwe, settling in Australia in her mid twenties. In 1981 she began exhibiting her offbeat ceramic sculptures, figures and vessels, whose hybrid forms increasingly reflect her fascination with the mutability of life. She has shown widely in Australia and internationally.
