Cynthia Lahti: Ceramics Now Exhibition, Romania

thirty exhibitions in the last 20 years. Her most recent solo exhibition, “NURSE”, at pdx contemporary art, received great reviews.

My goal is to create works of art that resonate with honesty and reflect the beauty and chaos of the world. My art is influenced by human artifacts from ancient times to the present, as well as by my personal experiences and emotions. Like the varied objects I draw on for inspiration - from 1940s knitting catalogs and outsider art, to Native American cedar carvings and Degas’ sculptures of dancers - my artworks force an explanation of reality and compel viewers to connect to a larger human experience. I work in various media, including drawing, collage, and sculpture.
