BIOGRAPHY

Joey Nuñez was born in Manhattan, New York and raised in Celebration, Florida. After spending time in Seattle, Washington, as the Studio Manager at Pottery Northwest for half a decade he is pursuing his ceramic career in Philadelphia. Joey graduated with a BFA in ceramics from The University of Florida and has been working in clay for twelve years.

As a child, he was drawn to the tactility and imaginative properties of clay. Endlessly passionate in making, his goal is for everyone to experience the joy and nostalgia in his handmade work. Joey draws influence from dramatic and colorful characters from various illustrative media found in cartoons and anime. Combining friends, family and bright animated colors into functional ware is the challenge he's expanding on as of late.
