with Ana Popescu
at Wanskuck Library
July 23rd, 2026 – 5:30PM
Ana Popescu is a Romanian-American multidisciplinary artist based in Providence, Rhode Island. She earned her BFA from Pratt Institute before co-founding an immersive event company in New York City, where she created site-specific installations and curated performance programs under the moniker A.Pop. She went on to direct large-scale branded productions across the U.S. for major advertising agencies.
Her sculptural practice centers on ceramics, exploring material experimentation through a blend of traditional processes, digital fabrication, and architectural references. She earned her MFA in Ceramics from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2025, supported by the RISD Fellowship, Windgate Foundation Scholarship, and Graduate Ceramic Award.
Popescu has received additional recognition from Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts, The Art Students League of New York, Anderson Ranch Arts Center, Watershed Center for Ceramic Arts, and the 2025 CERF+ Get Ready Grant. Her work has been exhibited internationally across more than two dozen shows in New York City, London, Bucharest, and Providence. She currently teaches ceramics at The Steel Yard in Providence and serves as a technical assistant in the Ceramics Department at RISD, where she will begin teaching Digital Ceramics in 2027.
The Artists Loop is a program for artists and art enthusiasts.
