About the Item

This hyper realistic ceramic sculpture by Tal Sharvit is from her recent body of works. Tal uses her extra ordinary abilities to create these pieces that at first do not look from ceramic, but as you come closer you see the details and amazed with the result. Each piece is white glove packed is a cushioned custom wooden crate. "I grew up in Jerusalem, and since 1992 I have lived in Gan Yoshiya, where my studio is also located, where I work in ceramics and teach. I am a graduate of the Department of Fashion Design at the Academies des Beaux Arts LA CAMBRE, in Brussels, Belgium. When I returned to Israel, I worked for about two years designing theater sets and designing clothes. The work with clay and a potter’s wheel fascinated me since childhood. In 1999, I decided to make my dream come true and since then the hobby has become a profession. I teach and work on a potter’s wheel and by hand. I tend to use traditional primitive burning techniques like raccoons, post-raccoons and smoking, so the result is always surprising and fascinating. I research the capabilities and limits of the ceramic material. The salient feature throughout my work is a process of trial and error. I do not necessarily want to obey the laws accepted in traditional pottery work. I always have the final product before my eyes and research how to achieve it."
