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 still resides.

Lynette primarily uses clay to create sculptures with coils, an ancient hand-building method. Her sculptures are influenced by reoccurrences throughout time, within the changes in light, erosion, shifting landscapes, and body. Lynette’s forms are developed through a gradual structure within their practice, intuition, and internal observations of their lived experiences. Lynette’s forms all have a relationship with one another, creating a dance, a certain give and take.
