Born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2004 and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Sophia Sprick’s artistic practice explores clay work as a process of physical intention, contradiction, and ephemerality. She is a ceramic and sculptural artist embraces materiality. Her ceramic art explores intimacy, visual and social communication, and the politics of land and water.

Sophia is currently pursuing her bachelor’s degree in Studio Art and Critical Ethnic Studies, with a minor in Anthropology at Kalamazoo College. Her multidisciplinary studies continue to inform her artistic approach as she studies and analyses cultural, communal, and historical narratives through anti-colonial, anti-racist, and posthumanist frameworks.
