About
Min Kyung Choi, born in Seoul, Korea, is a Brooklyn-based Ceramic artist.
She received her MFA in Ceramics from Kent State University, her BFA in Ceramics from the State University of New York at New Paltz, and a BA in Industrial design in Korea.
She received an Artist in Residency at the Greenwich House Pottery, has taught in many studios around, as an adjunct professor at the University of Akron and Hofstra University, New School, BKLYN CLAY, Earthwork, and the Brick House Ceramic Center, and she is currently teaching at 92NY, ClaySpace Ceramic Center, Mouse Ceramics, and Brookdale Community College.
Her ceramic work inspires functionality related to food, culture, and their artistic movement in our history and how we live our everyday lives. Her style of work is a collaboration of classic ceramics with a design background, throws, and altered surface decoration forms. She admires products made up of three things: water, clay, and fire, which gives fundamental similarities that connect functional pottery with everyday human life.
