Holding an MFA in ceramics from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, Joël Brodovsky-Adams is now based in Brooklyn. He is currently the Artist Fellow at the Museum of Arts and Design in New York City. His work consists of wheel-thrown forms with highly patterned and decorated surfaces, often taking shape as furniture. Originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Joël took up ceramics in 2013 at a studio called L’aluminé in Montreal, Quebec and later, in 2021, completed a post-bachelors certificate at NSCAD University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Joël has international exhibition credits, including a two-person exhibition at NADA New York with Superhouse Gallery, a group show at the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery in Waterloo, Ontario; a two person show at Studio 21 in Halifax which represented the culmination of his work from a residency at Guldagergaard International Ceramic Research Center in Skælskør, Denmark; a group show at Sculpture Space NYC. This past fall, he also completed a residency at Sculpture Space NYC.
