Poonam Chatlani was born in Panama on December 17, 1971. She is an artist and sculptor with over three decades of experience. She began her artistic journey in 1992 taking classes in terracotta sculpture and stained glass. Since then, she has developed a solid career focused on glass as an expressive medium, exploring techniques such as glass casting and painting. She has specialized in kiln-casting processes through technical training at Bullseye Glass in Portland.
She graduated from Nova Southeastern University in 1993 and earned a Master of Business Administration from ADEN Business School in 2006. This training has allowed her to manage her artistic career with a professional vision and participate in international projects.
An active member of the Glass Art Society and Contemporary Glass Society, she has exhibited her work in Panama, Colombia (Bogotá and MedellĂn), Costa Rica, Argentina, Miami, New York, Italy, the Dominican Republic, and Bulgaria. Her work has been recognized in exhibitions, auctions, and awards, including second place in the Roberto Lewis National Visual Arts Competition (2022). Her sculptures, with a poetic language focused on the female figure, energetic balance, and symbolism, are part of international public and private collections.
