Lauren Sandler, Lecturer
Lauren’s introduction to ceramics began with the study of artifacts as a student of
Anthropology. She was immediately drawn to the physical evidence and tangibility of
these ancient objects and loved how they inhabited the physical world of our lives
through utility while also functioning as metaphors for shifting meaning, measurements
of time, and means of connection. Born and raised in New York City Lauren was greatly
impacted by the contrasting experience of the city’s prodigious exterior to the intimate
interior space of her family’s apartment. Her work has an affinity for spaces where
the visceral and structural meet, to a shared experience of body and architecture.
Lauren has exhibited nationally and has held residences at Watershed Center for the
Ceramic Arts where she was the recipient of the Kiln God Award, and The Clay Studio
of Missoula. She holds an MFA in Ceramics from Penn State University and undergraduate
degrees in Anthropology and Ceramics from Ithaca College and Suny New Paltz. She teaches
ceramics.
