Lynette Nicole Betancur

Lynette Nicole Betancur (b.1994 )  is a second-generation Colombian-American multidisciplinary artist & designer. Lynette spent her formative years in Reno, Nevada, where she was born, and the rest of her youth in San Francisco, California where she currently resides.

Lynette primarily uses clay to create sculptures with coils, an ancient hand-building method. Her sculptures are influenced by the cyclical nature of time and light, shifting landscapes and erosion, mirrored in the human form. Developed through a gradual structure within their practice, intuition, and integral parts of her lived experiences, Lynette’s forms all have a relationship with one another, creating a dance, a give, and a take.
