Welcome to Ginko Studios' website. Our pottery and tiles are hand-crafted with colored porcelain. The detailed surface designs are created with inlays sliced from nerikome logs. Since the entire clay body is colored through and through, the designs and color of Ginko-ware will never rub off and the fine detail of every piece is dishwasher-safe.

We hope you will enjoy our work whether it be a decoration for your home or office, special-occasion dinner-ware or your favorite everyday coffee mug.

EAST AUSTIN STUDIO TOUR 2012

Ginko Studios will be open for visitors November 10-11 and 17-18,to stop by and see Sunyong & Philippe's latest work in progress. At the Annex Building, Sunyong is proud to present her mother, Jungok Chung's extraordinary embroidery work, selections from 1988 to 2012 (here's a sample).

Sunyong will not have any functional work for sale this year.

.ASIAN AMERICAN RESOURCE CENTER (AARC)

Sunyong & Philippe have been chosen as a team for an Art in Public Places project for the AARC. They have been working on an outdoor sculpture. Sunyong is creating a 12' diameter floor mosaic. Philippe is carving seven vertical "petals," standing 9' tall, and a low fountain for this project. AARC is currently under construction, located on Cameron Road, just north of HWY 183. It is scheduled to open in spring of 2013.

Here are some photos of the work in progress.
