My approach to ceramics
When I started working with clay, I just wanted to try as much as possible. I did things I love, I did things that won’t matter anymore.
One thing became very clear to me: I love exploring and testing.
My pieces are (mostly) unique. Nowadays I make multiples, sculptures and I’ve working in some collections.
I keep learning and have attended classes at La Meridiana (Italy), Community Kiln (Framingham/MA) and more recently at the Harvard Ceramics Program. I’m very excited with all the possibilities I can explore.
I am fascinated by the work done by Lucie Rie. There’s something special about what she did.
I am also very attracted to Japanese ceramics. The wabi-sabi aesthetic, focusing on natural beauty, imperfections, and organic forms have inspired me.
You will find these influences on some of my pieces where I incorporate modern finishes and eclectic elements, blending traditional and contemporary influences.
Most importantly, nature has been my biggest inspiration.
