Sybille Zeldin’s boundless creativity transformed the rudimentary into the extraordinary. After mastering ceramics at the University of the Arts, she became a Resident Artist at The Clay Studio where her work flourished. Later she also brightened the world with her fine and unique works in watercolor and silk screen. No artistic medium could confound her unceasing ability to inhabit and reflect beauty.
Zeldin's creativity, spontaneity, and unflagging extraction of the beauty in all things will live on through all members of her family, the many artists she has supported at The Clay Studio, and all those fortunate enough to have known her. “When my final product appears, I take something I have seen and combine it with something imagined to make something new.”
Sybille Zeldin was always grateful and enthusiastic about her time at The Clay Studio and did a great deal to support the organization over the years. Her incredibly generous Zeldin Fellowships to the Resident Artist Program over the years have helped to ensure the continuation of the experience she had for young artists far into the future.
