Statement

As an artist, my work reflects my fascination with the transience of life, movement, and flow. My mediums are ceramic, paper, marble, and acrylic, which allows me to explore the intersection of different materials, textures, and forms. Through my artwork, I aim to evoke a sense of calm and quiet strength, emphasizing the beauty and fragility of life.

My ceramic sculptures, with their abstract biomorphic forms, are inspired by nature, gestural movements, and elegant beauty. Ultimately, my goal as an artist is to create works that engage the viewer on an emotional level, inviting them to reflect on the beauty of life, and the role that art plays in capturing and preserving our experiences.
