Natalia Landowska
Natalia Landowska is a Polish artist and designer based in New York. With formal background in architecture, her design practice has been from the very beginning evolving towards ultimate creative freedom and outlets unconstrained by norms and expectations.
In ceramics Natalia toys with beauty in weirdness, imperfections and chaos. She experiments with porcelain formula to build surprisingly thin and lightweight shells, often allowing serendipity of kiln firing to alter the form. Glazes are layered and elaborate, they show their true nature when light comes on - soft glow amplifies textures, shadows play a role equally important as highlights.
The Pink series of wall sconces is a study on our understanding of girly and feminine and its stereotypical link to cuteness or tackiness, a contemplation on vulnerability and complexity of being a woman. Natalia’s ceramic lamps seemingly pretty from the distance, only reveal their true nature in close examination - blisters, scars, cracks and peeling layers occur to be the actual factors of attraction.
