Nori Pao is an interdisciplinary artist whose work explores themes of time, memory, identity, the unconscious, and our relationship to the intangible. The foundation of Pao’s practice lies in developing ideas through intense material exploration and collaboration. Employing a variety of methods and mediums—ceramics, sculpture, drawing, storytelling, photography, and video—Pao uses landscape, location, and ritual to reference the self. Pao received an MFA from Arizona State University and a BA from the University of Delaware. She has recently participated in exhibitions at Albada Jelgersma, Amsterdam, NL; Stellar Projects (solo), New York, NY; SEPTEMBER, Hudson, NY; Harvey Preston Gallery, Aspen, CO; and Carbondale Arts, Carbondale, CO. Past honors include residencies at the Anderson Ranch Arts Center, Snowmass Village, CO and the European Ceramic Workcentre (EKWC), Oisterwijk, NL. Pao lives and works in Aspen, CO.
