Natalia Arbelaez is a Colombian American ceramic artist whose work weaves together family history, migration, pre-Columbian traditions, and popular culture. Through clay, she explores Mestizo, Colombian, and American identity while researching overlooked histories of Latin American, Amerindian, and women artists of color. Her work uses humor, storytelling, and material symbolism to examine how culture is lost, preserved, transformed, and passed from one generation to the next.
