Path and Inspiration
I believe in the philosophical message transmitted by slow-made objects. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong connection to the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi. I am constantly learning to welcome acceptance, transience, and imperfection in my work: there is beauty to be admired in every flaw. Simple, rustic, and organic surfaces remind us that we are alive and that we all have a personal journey to accomplish.Process and Practice
My preference goes to simple shapes with an organic twist, natural colours, muted tones and tactile textures. I work mainly with stoneware clays, fired in an electric kiln, navigating through all building techniques to create my vessels. I love rustic clays with a strong personality and a story to tell: wild clays, gritty clays, black clays, iron-rich clays. I love nothing more than trying to elevate rawness to a state of modern elegance in a functional vessel.
