About

Lauri Kilusk is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of art, architecture, and digital fabrication, whose work redefines the creative potential of robotics in ceramics. Their most-cited paper, "Loading Ceramics: Visualising Possibilities of Robotics in Ceramics" (2024), introduces an innovative artistic research project that leverages artist-in-residency and exhibition formats to explore robotic 3D printing with clay. By uniting artists and architects in a collaborative, curatorial framework, Kilusk demonstrates how interdisciplinary practice can push the boundaries of traditional ceramic craft. This work, already garnering 2 citations in its first year, signals growing interest in their vision for merging computational design with material artistry. Kilusk’s contributions lie in bridging the gap between manual craftsmanship and automated fabrication, offering a tangible model for how robotics can expand aesthetic and structural possibilities in ceramics. Their approach not only advances technical methods but also reimagines the role of the artist in a technologically mediated studio. For students and researchers, Kilusk’s practice serves as an inspiring case study in how artistic residencies and exhibitions can function as rigorous research methods, opening new dialogues between human creativity and machine precision.
