Meet Bari Ziperstein, a prolific ceramic artist and dear friend. We met over a decade ago when Bari launched her BZIPPY line. I fell in love with her brutalist vases, sense of humor and flawless design aesthetic. Last week we visited Bari at her amazing Montecito Heights studio - where she does both her fine art and design production - to talk about how she avoided the myth that artists have to teach to survive, and created a business inspired by conceptual art and intersectional feminist principles.
