Natalia Engelhardt is an artist living and working in Amagansett and Brooklyn. Her artistic practice is characterized by a movement-oriented approach to hand building ceramics. In a world of extremes, her work investigates the profound beauty in subtlety. A barely there dimple, a gentle slope, or a meandering curve become the components of a quiet rhythm she renders in clay. Natalia's restraint and gestural exploration of form results in works that communicate a sense of quietude.  Her glazes are subtle, but rich in nuance and texture.

Central to Natalia's work is her process, which is defined by improvisation and spontaneity. She begins the process without precise expectations of what a piece will eventually look like, striving to balance meticulous craftsmanship while embracing the surprising and often uncontrollable nature of clay.
