Zemer Peled: Porcelain sculpture

Artist Zemer Peled examines beauty and brutality in the natural world. Her works are formed of thousands of hand crafted ceramic shards constructed into sculptures and installations.

Her latest works are exquisite.

This post also covers some of her previous works, especially those that have process shots associated with them (beginning immediately below).

Using a slab roller, Peled makes sheets of clay which are fired, and then smashed into pieces with a hammer, creating a contrast between soft and solid material.

Her works channel flowers or sea creatures, many taking their colour from the blue cobalt of traditional Japanese pottery.
