Latika Nehra (b. 1991, Jaipur, India) is a visual artist and sculptor working predominantly in ceramics. Her work explores the dialectics of nature, the natural and the artificial, the given and the created, and their recurrent topological interweaving, which often blurs the boundaries of this apparent dichotomy.

Her creative practice references the archetypal act of creation itself: life, with its emergence, persistence, and transformation. She pushes the expressive capacities of clay, envisioning sculpture as both a material meditation and a space for speculation. Constructing her works within imaginative, science-fiction-inspired frameworks, Latika reflects on technology’s evolving impact on our physiology, cognition, and sense of self, while also examining the desires and limitations that shape these environments. She seeks to reaffirm the value of the tangible, enhancing the sensory experience through form, texture, and interaction.

Latika lives and works in Berlin, frequently traveling to India to engage with traditional crafts by finding new ways to contribute to their evolving contemporary discourse. She holds a degree in Visual Design from the National Institute of Design (Ahmedabad, India) and a Master of Arts in Design from Anhalt University (Dessau, Germany)
