MEG HUBERT
Meg Hubert has been shaping clay into joyful, functional sculpture since 2004. Her practice moves fluidly between lighting, vessels, and expressive everyday objects, each piece driven by a deep interest in how form, colour, and light animate domestic space.
Her sculptural lighting, seen in commissions for Measured Architecture and the Vancouver Tacofino restaurants, transforms porcelain and stoneware into atmospheric objects. Through inlaid pigments, carved slips, layered glazes, and finely tuned translucency, Hubert creates pendants and sconces that shift throughout the day, glowing with soft pastels at dusk, vibrating with colour when illuminated, and holding quiet, cloud-like matte surfaces when unlit.
Alongside these works, Hubert maintains a spirited engagement with the everyday. Her mugs, bowls, clocks, planters, and wall hooks are generous in scale and full of character, from the expressive “Floating Face” and “Woah Dude” series to the jubilant Yes / Have a Happy Day mugs sparked by a thrift-store find. Her vessels invite ritual: the favourite morning mug, the wide bowl used for every meal, the handle that fits perfectly in the hand.
Across her practice, Hubert brings together humour, craftsmanship, and a highly personal vocabulary of colour and texture. Whether illuminating an architectural interior or elevating daily habits, her ceramics offer a reminder that the objects we live with can be sculptural, tactile, and quietly transformative.
