Oriel Zinaburg
I was born in Tel Aviv, Israel, in 1973. After completing my Military Service, I moved to the UK to study architecture at the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London, where I completed my diploma. For the following 15 years, I worked as an architect specializing in marine architecture for the cruising industry. Following an inspiring visit to the Leach Pottery School and Gallery in St. Ives, I began practicing ceramics and taking courses to improve my knowledge and skills. My passion for pottery and the desire to commit myself to the profession have led me to leave my job and open my own studio in 2020. Since then, I have been fortunate to collaborate and work together with other artists and exhibit my work in numerous places. Recently I have been selected to show two of my objects at the 2021 British Ceramic Biennial in Stoke-on-Trent, and I had my first solo show at the Cromwell Place in London (presented by Ting & Ying Gallery) in December 2022.
