Lauren Shapiro is a Miami-based visual artist whose work explores material traditions and environmental research. Working primarily in ceramics and glass, she creates sculptural forms ranging from vessels and reliefs to large-scale public art installations. Her practice draws from original fieldwork and site-specific studies, blending organic textures with geometric and architectural motifs. Through collaborations with scientists, and by combining digital tools with traditional hand-built methods, Shapiro creates works that reflect nature’s fragility and human history, serving as both artworks and material archives. Shapiro’s work was the subject of a solo exhibition, Pastiche, at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, Miami in 2024. Select recent commissions include Collected Forms, MSC Cruise Terminal, Port Miami in 2025; Garden Portals, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, Miami in 2021; and Future Pacific, Bakehouse Art Complex, Miami in 2020.
The artist’s work is collected, among others, by Soho House and Jorge M. Pérez, Founder of the Pérez Art Museum Miami.
