Born in Bolzano in 1968 and a graduate in architecture from the IUAV in Venice, Lara De Sio combines technical rigor with artistic audacity. After a career in architecture and design, notably at Venini and Barovier & Toso in Murano, she immersed herself in the world of ceramics, training in Naked Raku with the British ceramist David Roberts. Her work is distinguished by an exceptional mastery of the material, where each piece reveals a subtle balance between structure and emotion, tradition and modernity.

Since her first group exhibitions in Venice in 2005, Lara De Sio has participated in numerous international exhibitions: from the Talavera de la Reina Biennale to the Grassi Messe exhibition in Leipzig, and the Taoxichuan Spring Art Fair in China. A recipient of many awards, her works are held in permanent collections in Europe and Asia, attesting to her international acclaim.

A multifaceted artist, she currently explores ceramics and glass, with a constant focus on light, texture, and gesture. Her recent projects, such as the glass sculptures for ArcadeMurano and the solo exhibition Umbrae at the Abscondita Gallery, demonstrate a rare inventiveness and sensitivity. Based in Venice, Lara De Sio embodies the fusion of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary innovation, making each creation a unique visual and tactile journey.
