Nina Laguta (*1994, in Nova Kakhovka, Ukraine) is a contemporary sculptor whose practice explores how trauma, power, and poetic forms move through personal and social narratives. Working primarily with clay, wax, and bioplastic, she examines how these forces resonate across individual experience and collective memory. She is based in Kyiv.
