Nataliya Zuban is an artist based between the Netherlands and Ukraine whose practice spans sculpture, ceramics, installation, and kinetic media. Her work engages with memory, trauma, and the material traces of historical and personal events, with a focus on fragility, transformation, and cycles of creation and destruction.
Working across unstable and process-driven forms, she develops sculptural environments in which matter operates simultaneously as structure and agent of change. Through systems that shift, erode, or collapse over time, her installations evoke states of curiosity, uncertainty, and tension, reflecting on vulnerability as a shared human and political condition.
She has participated in numerous international residency programs, including the Ceramic Creative Center at the Clayarch Gimhae Museum (South Korea); the European Ceramic Work Center and the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten (the Netherlands); Senter for keramisk kunst (Norway); and Casa Wabi (Mexico).
Nataliya Zuban’s works have been exhibited both nationally and internationally and are held in the collections of the Ariana Museum (CH), Keramikmuseum Westerwald (DE), FuLe International Ceramic Art Museum FLICAM (CN), Vallauris Institute of Arts (FR), Museu de Ceràmica de l’Alcora (ES), the Centre of Polish Sculpture in Oronsko (PL), and the National Museum of Ukrainian Pottery (UA).
