Alyssa Gerasimoff




In 2020 I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design with a degree in Furniture Design and Sustainability Studies. I am now in my first semster pursuing a master’s degree in Food Studies at NYU and questioning if I made the right decision. I have come to realize that I am a design thinker and perahps my masters degree should be in a design field.

I love to work in all mediums, 3D, 2D, digital and am always trying to explore new materials and technologies. I lived in Berlin, Germany for two years and after figuring out my career in NYC I hope to move back. If you want to add me to your team or offer some advice please don’t hesitate to reach out.

EXPLORATIONS IN SLIPCASTING





All of these pieces were made during a six-week intensive slip casting class. I explored as many techniques as possible while learning the process itself. I produced the molds for the plates, cups, jugs, and abstract ovular object pair in the woodshop, with the lathe. On the contrary, I was also interested in the translation of a single-use materials such as a plastic container and aluminium foil into durable, high quality ceramic material. I thoroughly enjoyed this process and hope to continue exploring slip casting and ceramics in future work. Particularly, finding more ways of intersecting the material with my interests in food and dining.
