Whitney Choi – MacChoi Pottery
2026- Taking part in Potfest in the City – Glasgow
MacChoi Pottery is where tradition meets experimentation, driven by a deep respect for the earth and its resources. My work draws on a chemistry background, allowing me to push the material possibilities of clay and glaze while weaving sustainability into every aspect of my practice. By integrating waste and reclaimed materials into my ceramics, I aim to create pieces that not only serve a purpose but also tell a story of renewal and responsibility.
Craftsmanship is at the heart of what I do, but so is the idea that pottery can go beyond aesthetics. Each piece is a reflection of my desire to make a positive impact on the world, whether through reducing waste or inspiring more conscious consumer choices.The tactile process of shaping clay is my way of reconnecting with
nature, turning raw materials into objects that blend functionality, beauty, and sustainability.
At MacChoi Pottery, I see ceramics as a medium for meaningful dialogue—about our environment, our consumption, and our relationship to the handmade. My work is an invitation to slow down, to appreciate the craftsmanship behind everyday objects, and to reimagine how we can live in harmony with the world around us.
