Artist Bio

When Sekelle Nathan’s son nudged her to trade her upcycled/ up-styled, paper mache creations for “real” pottery, she responded “I love telling people this ancient-looking jug used to be a juice bottle! Or that what looks like an old-world grain jar once held animal crackers! It amazes them. I won’t get the same reactions if I start with a lump of clay.”

An emerging mixed media and sculptural artist, Sekelle isn’t just crafting décor—she’s crafting stories.

Her functional sculptures invoke the aged, lived-in character of pottery and stoneware from early civilization while her moss art is infused with subtle patterns that invite the viewer to see an image while still maintaining the abstraction characteristic of moss art. Sekelle's artistry in moss art has been recognized by placing third in the 2025 CCAL Annual Contest, and her piece Reign has been included in the 'Resonate' exhibit at the Gallery at Morning Star.

Sekelle lives in Chapin with her husband David and her 3 sons.
