Carina Cheung

Carina Cheung, Putnam Valley, New York
Carina's
work investigates the cyclical nature of human activity, highlighting
the subtleties and unseen processes of
objects and people within our daily surroundings by transforming
our residue into objects themselves. Her
interests in how materials, languages and the mundane shape the
unspoken dialogue of hand or machine made processes have lead her to
study and work in glass facilities in Italy, India and China. Her
wide exposure to seemingly disparate cultures and methodologies within
glassblowing communities and industries has been invaluable to her
studio development, and continue to influence her work.
Carina Cheung received her BFA in Glass from
Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, RI in 2006. She is a
recipient of the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Fine Arts Travel
Fellowship, and is currently residing in Shandong
Province, China where she is completing her program as a Fulbright
scholar.
