Sconce 8115

Sconce 8115 by Natalia Landowska is part of Laminae (2026), a series examining the uppermost layers of the earth through ceramic and light. The work is formed using a composite of porcelain clay and paper pulp, enabling thin, extended structures that retain strength after firing.

The surface is defined by accumulated glaze layers, applied and reworked over time. During firing, these layers shift, crack, and separate, creating a complex skin that records both construction and transformation. The ceramic body filters the internal light source, producing a subdued and controlled illumination.

Across the series, Landowska treats light as a structural element, shaping perception as much as the ceramic form itself.

Artist

Natalia Landowska

Polish artist and designer based in New York, Natalia Landowska, works at the boundary of art and design. Trained in architecture, she moved away from normative constraints toward a practice driven by experimentation and material freedom.

She works with porcelain in plaster moulds, adding paper to produce shells of extreme thinness and lightness. Glazes are layered and mixed to create complex, unpredictable surfaces, each piece unique in both form and finish.

Her work questions conventional notions of beauty. Forms are deliberately imperfect; glazes may run or flake, edges fray. In these embraced fragilities, she seeks a subtle harmony between matter, light, and composition.

Light is central: it reveals the translucent zones of the porcelain, animates the textures, and generates a play of shadow and reflection that gives each work an almost organic presence. For Landowska, beauty emerges from strangeness, from imperfection.
