Zara Bronwyn Davis is a fine artist living in upstate New York. She graduated with a BFA in Ceramics from the Rochester Institute of Technology. Zara was a three year resident artist at the Flower City Arts Center, where she refined her skills and developed her current body of work. She is a working artist and a ceramics/jewelry teacher in Rochester, New York.

Zara has incorporated her love of painting, drawing, jewelry and fiber arts into her wider ceramics practice. Her work focuses heavily on figure sculpture and relief carving, paired with illustration and imagery. Each piece goes through multiple stages from the initial creation in terra-cotta or stoneware through the glazing process and then multiple layers of additional overglazes, often with mixed media elements to create the final result.

Zara’s work is intricate, detailed and aims to show the sumptuous nature of the body and the strength of femininity. Her work currently explores the intersection between history, religion, storytelling and mythology, along with the fascinating and frustrating portrayal of women therein.
