Brittany Mojo

Brittany Mojo is a Los Angeles-based ceramicist. Interested in time and labor, Mojo investigates the histories of gendered work through the manipulation of material. Using traditional processes, Mojo negotiates the utility of service and its relationship to women's work, reconstructing rigid material hierarchies and gendered norms. Using the image of function as an armature for material exploration and installation, objects act as stand-ins for a lived experience within our everyday. Vessels, chairs, lamps, tools, bikes, and furniture are realized from materials that leave evidence of the hand. The work confronts sculpture and craft, fine art and design and the nuanced concepts within.

Mojo received her BFA in Ceramics from California State University, Long Beach and her MFA from UCLA in 2016. She currently teaches ceramics and sculpture at Orange Coast College and LaSierra University. She is a member of the artist-run collective, TSA LA.
