 | Born in Guadalajara, Mexico, Yuri Zatarain is an artist whose work has been exhibited in galleries around the world. Trained as a painter, he became involved with a small ceramics workshop when he wanted to design a new collection of sculptural pieces. Several years later, he has become the creative force behind an extensive collection of decorative ceramics created for the Phillips Collection and distributed around the world.
Yuri’s work is surrounded by feeling; there is a yearning to discover something new in the essence of the old. He finds inspiration in nature and natural forms, and in the cultures of traditional societies. His designs capture a feeling he describes as “ethnic chic,” combining a global sensibility with a contemporary aesthetic. His materials are natural --- clay, wood and iron -- used thoughtfully and in keeping with his artistic ideals. |
