Sconce 4053

Sconce 4053 by Natalia Landowska is part of Laminae (2026), a series examining the uppermost layers of the earth through ceramic and light. The form is developed through an additive process, with clay built up, altered, and partially reduced before firing.

Glaze is applied in thick, paste-like layers, then subjected to heat conditions that produce cracking, separation, and tonal variation. The final surface is uneven and stratified, with light interacting differently across each section. The internal light source is contained, producing a diffused and indirect effect.

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