Brian Christensen (he/him), an artist and educator, holds an MFA degree from Washington University in St. Louis and currently serves as an associate Professor of Art at Brigham Young University. His pedagogical focus encompasses ceramics, sculpture, 3D design, and various studio courses, where he has passionately contributed to the evolution of the sculpture and ceramics programs within the BYU Department of Art’s 3D studio area.

Brian Christensen’s artistic direction is shaped by the physical world as well as issues of perception, both of which combine to form connections with the viewer.
