Iris Zonnenfeld
Artist statement
Iris Zonnenfeld is an artist who lives and works in the Golan Heights. Her natural habitat, the views and nature surrounding her, are reflected in her work. Another important influence in her work is mankind and humanity. Inclusive to her work are ethnic nuances - which are the result of a combination of the raw materials chosen with the colorful geometrical designs – intended for people to appreciate and enjoy using. Ceramic sculptures designed by the artist, nurtured from the world of nature, are reminiscent of African art, while at the same time extending the clay to its full capacity, thus combining the primitive with the virtuosic.
