Lisa Tucker is a multidisciplinary artist, educator, and curator. She received her MFA in Studio Art from UC Irvine in 2007, where her focus was combining art, technology and science into functional sculpture. Her interest in ceramics began while doing research for a project bringing scientific lab equipment into the kitchen. She fell in love with porcelain as a material while learning to throw and hand build the scientific devices. Much of her work could be termed “social sculpture.” Ms. Tucker’s work takes place in the community and through public events.
She is the owner/founder of TuckerWorks, an art studio in Redlands, CA, where she teaches visual art to students of all ages. Lisa also teaches art and information technology for Victor Valley College and Southern New Hampshire University online.
