Photographer / Ceramists
As a ceramic pottery artist, I am deeply inspired by the elemental nature of clay and the transformative power of the kiln. In my work, I explore the infinite possibilities of form, texture, and surface treatment. I strive to create vessels that transcend mere function, becoming vessels of contemplation. Through the rhythmic motion of throwing on the wheel or the meticulous hand-building process, I find a sense of meditation and mindfulness. Each piece carries with it the imprint of my hands, a tangible reminder of the dialogue between artist and medium. Ultimately, my goal as a ceramic pottery artist is to create objects that enrich the everyday experience, infusing moments of beauty and meaning into the rituals of daily life. Whether it’s a simple mug for morning coffee or an intricate vase for displaying fresh blooms, each piece invites tactile exploration and invites a deeper connection to the world around us.
