Eugenie Chao is a New York-based artist, educator, and musician who uses clay as her primary material for self-expression. Her practice in clay combines techniques in handbuilding and wheel throwing to create abstract sculptures, animated animal figures, rich sounding musical instruments, and user-focused tableware. Her fascination for this versatile and tactile earthy material stems from a deep appreciation of nature and simplicity which permeates her work. This material also offers a window to millennia of history and connects us back to prehistoric civilizations.
