Lidya Buzio (1948 – September 30, 2014) was an Uruguayan-born American ceramist.

Born in Montevideo, Buzio studied with artists of the Taller Torres-Garcia in that city before moving to New York City in 1971; in the 1990s she moved again, to the North Fork of Long Island.[1] She crafted mainly burnished black pots onto which she would paint scenes of New York rooftops.[2]

An example of Buzio's work is in the collection of the

University of Iowa Museum of Art; and the Victoria and Albert Museum.[4]

Buzio died of cancer at her home in Greenport, Long Island, aged 65 and survived by her husband, sister and two brothers.[1]
