Behind my work

landscapes & atmosphere

Cliffs shaped over millions of years. The endless rhythm of the sea. The quiet flow of rivers. These places hold a vastness that is both grounding and humbling. I try to capture their atmosphere not in a literal way, but in mood, tone, and presence.

evoking, not describing

Working with clay is, for me, not about describing nature but about evoking it ,  much like poetry does with language. A vessel can carry a quiet suggestion of narrative or memory, expressed through texture, shape, colour, and silence.

the nature of clay

Clay itself is earth. It has weight, resistance, and a memory of touch. I value how it records the hand, responds to gravity, and holds a quiet honesty in the surface.

holding space

In that grounded material, I look for a sense of space, a form that can hold stillness and something of the vastness that inspires it. Rather than stating something directly, my vessels aim to imply, invite, or suggest.

resonance

Subtle, contemplative, sometimes expressive, they are made slowly as a way of holding something essential: silence, stillness, atmosphere.

I hope these vessels find their own resonance with you, as reminders of silence, space, and something larger than ourselves.
