Brianne Munch is an artist, educator and advocate for the arts. She grew up in Traverse City, MI, where she currently lives, works, and creates. Since her youth, she has been engaged with the arts realm and has been a constant creator within it. From the opportunities in her early experience in ceramics, she is well versed in hand building, wheel throwing, and a variety of glazing techniques. After receiving her B.A. in Studio Art from Hope College, she has grown as an artist in her local community and sells her ceramic work in boutiques and restaurants. Her inspiration for her ceramic work derives from her mentors, the historical aspect of vessels, and the culinary functionality of artwork for the everyday. As an educator and businesswoman, she avidly seeks opportunities to gain more knowledge in her field. This fall, she will be attending a wheel throwing intensive in Italy at La Meridiana to expand her technique and style as a ceramic artist.
While ceramics is her main focus, her work expands into sculpture, analog photography, and printmaking.
