Melissa J. Chin is a designer, artist and writer based in Chicago, IL. She holds a Bachelor’s degree from Brown University and a Master’s degree from the University of Cambridge.
Through Grey Remedy, Melissa explores the creation of art as a meditative practice while producing elegant, minimalist pieces that are carefully crafted with an emphasis on the importance of shape, texture and proportion. Her goal is to create functional objects that bring beauty to our daily routines, turning the parts of our day that we tend to rush through into calm, intentional moments.
Melissa Chin Studio is Melissa’s ceramic home décor and sculpture line. Through this branch of her practice, she explores the tension between contrast and harmony, balancing curves and clean lines to produce beautifully unexpected shape combinations. She maintains a minimal palette of black, white, and earth tones to challenge herself to innovate with form, experimenting with proportion and configuration to create distinctive pieces that can speak for themselves with little addition of color.
