Born in Istanbul, Büyükada in 1910 as a member of the Şakir Paşa family, Füreya Koral is Turkey's first female professional ceramic artist. After graduating from Notre Dame de Sion French High School, she studied philosophy, but during the years she received treatment following an illness, she began working in ceramic art under the guidance of her aunt Fahrünnisa Zeyd. Following her training in Paris, she redefined ceramics not merely as a decorative medium, but as a modern art form.

Koral synthesized traditional Turkish tile and ceramic motifs with Western modern forms to produce massive panels and objects that integrated with architecture. The artist's iconic works, such as the "Walking People" series, are considered among the most valuable examples of modern Turkish art. Transforming the face of the city with her ceramic installations in public spaces, the artist passed away in Istanbul on August 26, 1997.
