Senior🎓
Top SchoolEm Irvin is an interdisciplinary artist-academic and ceramics specialist with 11 years of practice who bridges performance studies and material inquiry as a PhD candidate at UC Davis. They teach foundations and gender studies courses as adjunct faculty at multiple institutions while maintaining an active studio practice informed by residencies in Rome, Greece, South Korea, and Baltimore. Trained with an MFA (Colorado) and a BFA/BS (Ohio State), Irvin mixes research, exhibition-making, and pedagogy to probe relationalities between bodies, clay, and public space. Their writing and work appear in international journals and magazines, and they were recognized for an award-winning presentation on architecture and heritage in 2020. Based in Irvine, CA, Irvin combines rigorous academic methods with experimental ceramics techniques—often asking "ceramic questions" that reframe material agency. A poetic sensibility (hinted even in their GitHub bio) underpins a practice that is both conceptually driven and materially adventurous.
