Rose Schreiber (b. 1988) is a visual artist from Chicago, IL. Currently, she is Visiting Professor in Ceramic Art at Montana State University in Bozeman, MT. Through her artwork and research, Schreiber focuses on the intersection of ecological thought and ceramic art and materials--exploring issues of land, power, extraction, the planetary imaginary, and geologic poetics. 

Outside of the studio, Schreiber has been an organizer, editor, and writer for the Ceramic Materials Atlas, a collaborative storytelling and environmental humanities project linking global industry, environmental ethics, and contemporary ceramics. For her contributions to the Ceramic Materials Atlas, she was awarded the 2023 inaugural Environmental Sustainability Fellowship from the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA). More recently, she is the recipient of NCECA’s 2026 Helene Zucker Seeman Fellowship, which will support the creation and distribution of an artist book exploring themes of extraction, energy, and land enclosure in the American West. 

Schreiber's work has been shown at the American Museum of Ceramic Art in Pomona, CA, as well as at the Jingdezhen International Ceramic Art Biennale, where it received a New Talent Award.  

After graduating from the Ceramics MFA program at Alfred University in 2023, Schreiber was the 2023-2024 Artist-in-Residence and Visiting Lecturer at the Interdisciplinary Ceramic Research Center (ICRC) at the University of Kansas. Prior to ceramics, Schreiber completed an MFA in Literary Translation from the University of Iowa. Past translation projects focused on Latin American literature through an ecocritical lens.
