Caitlin McIver

Caitlin McIver is a Seattle-based ceramic sculptor whose work explores themes of vulnerability, protection, and transformation through imagined creatures. Her hand-built forms—often soft, spiny, and unsettling—reflect emotional and bodily experiences. Raised in Tampa, Caitlin holds a Master of Industrial Design from Pratt Institute and a Bachelor of Environmental Design (Architecture) from University of Colorado at Boulder. After working as a designer in New York City, she shifted to ceramics in Seattle, where she now teaches, maintains a studio practice, and works as a studio technician. Caitlin is currently a Resident Artist at Seward Park Clay Studio, where she continues to explore the intersection of personal experience and materiality in her sculptures.
