Hongxin Zhang

Hongxin Zhang is a multidisciplinary designer and installation artist based in New York. Zhang studied at the Polytechnic University of Milan in Italy, his design journey beginning with courses in Product Design. He then relocated to the United States, where he earned his Master's Degree in Industrial Design at the Rhode Island School of Design. All the while, he was reminiscing on his time in Italy, which had ignored a passion for craftsmanship inside him. At RISD, he took a hands-on approach to ceramics, textiles, wood, and blown glass. It was throughout this period of his life that he came to a new understanding of his own creativity and his approach to design, developing principles and a medium through which he would connect with others. It was also during this time that he developed the idea that would turn into Ocrùm, linking his vivid experiences with one of the most masterful craftsmen in the world and creating objects that are as stunning as they are refreshing.
