Kyle Scott Lee

Kyle Scott Lee was born in White Plains, New York, and lives and works in Rochester, New York. He creates voluptuous vessels and finely turned cups that serve as canvases for his distinctive hand painting and layered surface treatments. Drawing from traditional ceramic forms, Kyle’s work blends bold color, abstraction, and expressive glaze application into a highly personal visual language developed over more than 20 years of practice.

Kyle has studied ceramics in multiple studios throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn and has exhibited in both solo and group exhibitions in the U.S. and internationally. His work is held in private collections in London, France, New York, Pittsburgh, and North Carolina.

An active educator, Kyle has taught ceramics at the Educational Alliance Art School, GasworksNYC and other ceramic institutions.

He is a founding member of BKLYN CLAY and currently an Associate Artist at The Flower City Art Center.  Kyle has created work for West Elm, Faire and Paul Smith and has participated in nationally recognized gallery exhibitions and events, including the St. Croix Valley Pottery Tour.
