Michelle Mi Che is a Corean American interdisciplinary artist working in ceramic sculpture, performance, and photography. Her work examines suppressed histories of Corea, particularly the experiences and suffering of women across generations. Much of her work responds to the ways collective memory and unacknowledged injustice become embedded in the body. Her practice seeks to transform this inherited pain into a source of agency and insight, using the past as a guide for personal reflection and broader historical inquiry.
