Sculptural ceramics for poetic spaces

About my work

I design sculptural ceramic objects that bring a sense of serenity, calm, and completeness into your space. I aim to share these feelings with others, create an escape from everyday distractions, and give room for creativity and quiet contemplation.

I am inspired by the shapes and patterns that occur organically in nature. My goal is to recreate a sensible link with what we sometimes lose, which is the need to be grounded, to be rooted. Through clay, I connect time, place, and memories.
