Varda Yatom — Ceramic Sculptor

Examining the relationship between personal identity and culture, symbolism and meaning, aesthetics and morality through ceramic sculpture and installation.

Varda Yatom's sculptures begin from personal experience and examine the tensions between individual identity and culture — between symbols and meaning, language and material, aesthetics and morality. Drawing on the patterns embedded in Hebrew and on the physical process of working clay, her work invites a closer look that reveals layers of meaning hidden beneath the familiar.
