Sassy Park is a Sydney-based artist interested in the history of ceramics, objects and ideas. Her work plays with the accepted purposes of domestic ceramics and historical art genres, including ceramic vessels and figurative work. She explores and expands the boundaries of what ceramics are and what they can communicated in contemporary times. The medium of clay, with its embedded transformative nature of strength and fragility become metaphors for everday themes and debates.

Park studied painting at Sydney College of the Art later undertaking a masters in ceramics at National Art School in 2018. She is a finalist in the 2026 Wynne Prize, a finalist in the 2025 Archibald Prize and was the recipient of the 2024 Keramikkünstlerhaus scholarship in Neumünster, Germany and the 2022 Onslow Storrier studio residency at Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris, France. Her work is held in national public collections including the Powerhouse Museum, Bathurst Regional Gallery, Manly Art Gallery and Museum and the Art Gallery of Ballarat.
