Israeli ceramicist Zemer Peled took up pottery as part of therapy after a break-up in her 20s. She fell in love with it, and now exhibits her work at galleries and museums around the world. Zemer’s large and small-scale sculptures and installations examine the beauty and brutality of the natural world and are made from thousands of porcelain shards that she creates using her growing collection of hammers.

During the pandemic, Zemer found herself getting overwhelmed and used her ‘lifesaver’ – clay – to help her process what was going on around her.
