Emily B. Yang (b. 1991) is a Brooklyn-based ceramic and block print artist. She hand-carves blocks to print on paper and porcelain forms to explore the tension between cultural and social expectations, and self-determination.
Emily has exhibited at the Royal Academy of Art in London, the Yale School of Architecture, and the Harvard Graduate School of Design Kirkland Gallery. She has completed artist residencies at the Penland School of Craft (twice!), Anderson Ranch Arts Center, and Archie Bray Foundation. She is a graduate of Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design and is a 2025–26 Fulbright Scholar researching block printing and ceramics at Banaras Hindu University in India.
In addition to her artistic practice, she also engages in collaborations and commissions. Check out her recently commissioned illustrations for the Museum of Modern Art, the New York Times, and Welcome to Chinatown.
