Artista en residencia | Mayetta Steier
Creo piezas cerámicas funcionales y escultóricas que dialogan con el niñx interior que habita en todxs nosotrxs. Mi trabajo se inspira en la creatividad sin límites de la infancia, en las caricaturas y juguetes que me marcaron, y en la alegría de los colores vibrantes y las líneas gráficas.
Últimamente he estado reflexionando sobre la idea de los espacios sagrados y cómo distintas comunidades los definen. Para mí, la alegría y el juego son sagrados. Siento una profunda responsabilidad de cultivar la alegría a través de mi trabajo—especialmente en un mundo atravesado por el duelo. Mis piezas buscan entrelazar lo lúdico con lo sagrado, creando espacios donde la alegría pueda sentirse y compartirse.

I create functional and sculptural ceramic pieces that speak to the inner child in all of us. My work is inspired by the boundless creativity of childhood, the cartoons and toys I loved, and the joy I found in bright colors and graphic lines.
Lately, I’ve been reflecting on the idea of sacred spaces and how different communities define them. To me, joy and play are sacred. I feel a deep responsibility to cultivate joy through my work—especially in a world filled with grief. My pieces aim to blend silliness with sacredness, creating spaces where joy is both felt and shared.

Fuck ICE Fundraiser!
So devastating and disheartening to live in this country right now. A country made better by immigrants. A better world is possible. We are all human and deserve to be treated as human! No one is free until we're all free!
