Paula Bastiaansen

Paula Bastiaansen is a ceramic artist who lives and works in Zundert, Netherlands. She studied Ceramic Art at the Royal Academy of Art and Design in ’s-Hertogenbosch, graduating in 1983. Her work is known for exploring movement, rhythm, fragility, and translucency, often using bone china porcelain for its exceptionally fine texture.

Initially, Paula’s sculptural pieces were bowl-shaped, but over time, her work evolved to focus on space itself. This shift has led her to create large-scale installations that cover walls and floors, introducing exciting new challenges in scale and form. In recent years, vibrant colors, such as red, yellow, and green, have taken on an essential role in her work, adding energy and meaning to her pieces.

Her work has been exhibited internationally and is part of significant collections, including the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, the Princessehof Museum in Leeuwarden, the International Ceramic Museum in Gyeonggi, Korea, the Taipei County Ceramics Museum in Taiwan, and the Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche in Faenza, Italy. Paula has received numerous accolades, including the top prize at the XVI Bienal Internacional Cerámica Artística in Aveiro, Portugal, in 2023 and the Silver Prize at the International Ceramic Art Award in Lyon in 2017.
