Isaac Gewirth

Isaac Gewirth is a Boston-based designer and craftsperson. They earned their BA and BFA through the combined program between Tufts University and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, where they studied material culture and studio art. Isaac has a passion for understanding how things are made, loves spending time in the woodshop, working with their hands, and experimenting with different methods and processes of making. Isaac’s practice seeks to reconcile their identities as a woodworker and designer with their political commitments, examining themes of status, taste, quality, and ethical consumption. In the classroom, they emphasize process over product, fostering a collaborative, lighthearted environment—filled with music, lively conversation, and plenty of curiosity.
