She received her MFA in Ceramics from Kent State University and her BFA in Ceramics from the State University of New York at New Paltz, and a BA in Industrial design in Korea. She has taught as well as many studios around the USA and South Korea. She taught as an adjunct professor at the University of Akron and currently teaching at Hofstra University, 92NY, The Clay Space, and The Brick House. Her ceramic work inspires functionality related to food, culture, and their artistic movement in our history in how we live our everyday lives. Her style of work is a collaboration of classic ceramics with a design background, throws, and altered surface decoration forms. She admires products made up of three things; water, clay, and fire which gives fundamental similarities that connect functional pottery with everyday human life.

Artist Talk with Kay Kojima:The Hidden Secrets of Clay
Isabelle Yaron is a French potter trained the old fashioned way with different ceramic artists. Trained as a classical pianist, she found pottery by chance to later realize that her music background was able to feed her visual work. She is influenced by ancient ceramics and drawn by the harmony between the form and the mineralization created by the kiln fire. She is fascinated by artifact restoration and archaeology.
