She has exhibited widely, including the Denver Art Museum, the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver; Robischon Gallery, Denver; Grimmerhus Museum, Denmark; Formargruppen Gallery, Malmö, Sweden; Sculpturens Hus, Stockholm, Sweden; and the Taipei County Yingge Ceramics Museum, Taiwan. She has been a resident artist at the MacDowell Colony, the Archie Bray Foundation, the European Ceramic Workcentre, the International Ceramic Center in Denmark, and the Kahla Porcelain Factory and the Ceramic Center-Berlin in Germany. Her work is included in the books The Map As Art, by Katherine Harmon; Confrontational Ceramics, by Judith Schwartz, Contemporary Ceramics, by Emmanuel Cooper; The Artful Teapot, by Garth Clark; Postmodern Ceramics, by Mark Del Vecchio; Sex Pots, by Paul Matthieu; and A Ceramic Continuum: Fifty Years of the Archie Bray Influence, by Peter Held. She has lectured widely at institutions such as UCLA, USC, Columbia University, the Kansas City Art Institute, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, the University of Minnesota, Alfred University, and many others.

City Flight. Elegant and unique hanging wall art
By Arozarena De La Fuente
Located in Mexico City, MX
The two artists and industrial designers, Ampi Arozarena and Elena De La Fuente describe form and color as their core of exploration. They admire the dual identity the two elements create in their works of art. They are driven by the optical and physical sensation materials become on their unique canvasses. Projected shadows upon their work are also an important factor, this effect is generated in these two works with a 3D abstract placement of the main elements. It´s unique and neutral colors are also very easy to combine in any surrounding. Mexican Contemporary Art Modern Elegant Wall-art Modern Hanging Sculpture...
