Ceramic Shards Transformed Into Blooming Sculptures

Single Bloom, 2014

By smashing hand-crafted pieces of porcelain with a hammer, artist Zemer Peled creates artful shards which she then arranges into gorgeous floral blooms. She says her work "examines the beauty and brutality of the natural world."

Everything Auspicious, 2015

She furthers:

In some works, large scale-like ceramic pieces appear airy, delicate, and fluffy, as if one’s breath might break it. In others, my fragments are geometric barbs that mysteriously take on an alluring form – offering a sense of softness despite a sharp actuality.

Work in progress
