Kristy Hussey’s work centers on themes of fragility, resilience, and rebelliousness. With a background in science and a passion for learning, she is drawn to the scientific nature of ceramics and the medium’s potential. As both a scientist and an artist, Hussey strives to understand the world around her and to communicate her vision. Her love of experimentation, innate desire to explore, break rules, and push boundaries is omnipresent in her practice. Each piece that survives its trials is unique, embodying the tension inherent in the dichotomous nature of ceramics – at once fragile and strong.
