In the Studio: Heidi Lau

Heidi Lau is a ceramic artist who was born in Macau and now lives in New York. We sat down with her in October 2018, when she was an Artist-in-Residence at the Joan Mitchell Center, to learn about her practice and the vision behind it.

See her work in the solo exhibition Apparition as part of the Venice Biennale (representing Macau, on view through Nov. 10, 2019), and learn more about the artist at her website: heidilau.org.
