Dorothy Feibleman

Dorothy Feibleman is one of most experimental porcelain arist in the world. She started working with colored laminated clay (Nerikomi or Neriage in Japanese words) in 1969. In her work, different colored porcelains and clay bodies are laminated together in such a way that every change in color, texture and translucency is structural.
These forms are also dependent on the movement ofthe above elements in the construction, drying and firing. Since 1995 the artist has been working almost exclusively with white clays with varied translucency and color. Recently, in a special project at Jikken kobo, Inax, Tokoname, Japan, Feibleman developed new translucent porcelain and zogan processes for industry. As a result of the research, she made the largest, thinnest translucent nerikomi zogan studio pieces to date.

Dorothy Feibleman's work is included in a number of public collections including Victoria and Albert Museum, London, Stuttgart Museum, Germany, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
