Nathalie Lautenbacher
University Lecturer in Ceramics
My creative practice spans ceramics studio work, small-series production, and collaborations with the ceramics and glass industries. In both functional tableware and sculptural pieces, I seek a balance of clarity of form, color, and tactility with nuanced subtlety. I maintain an independent practice alongside project-based partnerships and continue to develop new collections and commissioned pieces for diverse contexts. I teach as I work—through hands-on practice—because I believe that touching and shaping concrete materials fosters learning that is both thoughtful and sensory.
