Collection: Erica Iman

Erica Iman is a painter and ceramics artist working in her studio in the hills north of Lawrence, KS. She received her BFA in ceramics  and BSE in art from the University of Missouri (Colombia) and her MFA in ceramics from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Between earning her degrees, Iman served in the U.S. Peace Corps on the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia teaching English and gardening. Her hand-built work is inspired by geological formations. She leans on the clay’s inherent qualities to mimic the processes and structures in nature. Iman was a founding member of Kansas City Urban Potters and she plans to expand her studio space to include a residency program and gallery with her husband Eric.
