«My work is based on a combination of traditional crafts and free sculptural ceramics. They are in a sense, deconstructed classical vase and bowl shapes, assembled out of pieces made on the potters wheel. Each piece is unique and shapes slowly evolve over time.
The creation of the pieces are first based on intuition from the raw elements themselves and then influenced by previous works and natural shapes like maritime creatures, plant seeds and floral buds.
The sculptures are coulored with an engobe in bright tones and fired at a stoneware temperature(grès).»
