Michelle Im is a Korean American artist in Queens, New York. ‘RATxCHICKS’ is a project name for her ceramics that is a play on the words ‘rachet’ and ‘rad chicks’. Humor is an integral part of her work as she examines internal conflict through her illustrative surfaces. She pairs motifs that are deliberately out of the ordinary to encapsulate a sense of absurdity that is approachable for the viewer.
