Melissa Zook

Melissa Zook's thrown and altered porcelain and stoneware vessels juxtapose modern minimal forms and organic mark-making. Using visual and haptic languages, she employs additive and subtractive processes to convey a sense of interruption on her surfaces, engaging the viewer and vessel in a tactile experience. Through exploration, being surprised, learning from the materials and process, and embracing the character that imperfections impart, Melissa infuses her vessels with the suspense created by the continual evolution of thought and creation. Her current pieces explore the juxtaposition of form and the panoply of armor, being disjointed and hovering away from the body it is at the same instant, a part and yet separate from the form. Melissa graduated from Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA, and Pratt Institute with a MID.
