a story of landscape and atmosphere
The process of making my ceramic vessels
moodboards & atmosphere
Each new body of work begins with a moodboard, a collection of images, colors, and textures that capture a certain atmosphere. Based on that, I develop a color palette and search for a clay body that supports the mood I want to express. The texture, tone, and how the clay reacts to glaze all play a part.
choosing the glazes
Once the base feels right, I start testing glazes. I look for combinations that create depth, variation, and a sense of movement. This is a slow process of adjusting layering techniques, and firing temperatures until the right balance appears.
form & shape
I make larger vessels with simple shapes to give the surface room to breathe.
layering the surface
After the bisque firing, I apply the glaze by hand with a brush. This allows me to work in layers and vary the thickness, direction, and rhythm. Each layer adds something, a shift in color, a soft edge, a sense of depth.
The making is also about care for the environment. My kiln runs on green energy, and all packaging is recyclable and environmentally friendly. These quiet choices are part of the same rhythm: a way of working that respects both material and place.
The result is not perfection, but a presence shaped by time, attention, and atmosphere.
Every step in this process is slow and attentive, so that what is made can also offer stillness to the one who lives with it
