Jengis Poor is a ceramic artist specialising in wheel-thrown porcelain and earthenware, working from his home studio in Dunedin, New Zealand. Jengis draws inspiration from New Zealand landscapes, native trees, and constellations, as well as musicians and poets. These themes often appear in his work.

He is currently working with fine white clays (porcelain, earthenware) and cone 6 (fired at 1230° centigrade). All are hand-thrown on an electric wheel and fired in an oxidised atmosphere.

Domestic wares are hand painted with coloured slips (metal oxides) and over glazed with food safe clear glaze.
