Julia Haft-Candell works in ceramics, bronze, drawing and painting, writing, and animation. She challenges and expands upon traditional techniques to change systems of thought and build new cultural histories, guided by an ever-evolving personal philosophy she calls "The Infinite." Haft-Candell further expands these ideas through creating new framework for teaching ceramics called The Infinite School, a ceramics education program she runs out of her studio in Los Angeles. Haft-Candell received her BA in Studio Art and International Relations from University of California Davis, followed by an MFA from California State University Long Beach.
