Jordan Danger is an award-winning ceramicist, sculptor, and painter.
Jordan is an emerging Canadian genderfluid LGBTTQQ artist living in Ottawa, Ontario. Living with an invisible disability inspires Danger’s exploration of functionality—the intersection of art and craft, form and purpose. Working primarily in clay, mixed media, and paint, their background in illustration and animation shapes Danger’s design approach.
Jordan’s work has appeared in Ceramics Art + Perception Magazine, and has received awards for People’s Choice and Best Sculptural Piece at the Ottawa Guild of Potters’ juried exhibitions in 2025, 2021, and 2020. Danger’s solo show “Electric Sheep” ran in 2024 at The City of Ottawa Archives Gallery, and in 2018 the solo exhibition ‘No Green Without Blue’ debuted at the Shenkman Arts Centre. Danger’s most recent exhibition, ‘AIRSPACE’, had an extended run in the center of Ben Franklin Place in Ottawa, Ontario during 2026.
“I strive to create pieces that invite touch and connection,” Danger says. “By blurring the line between craft and fine art, I seek a middle ground where work is both artfully made and universally accessible.”
