"As a ceramic artist I create sculptural pieces designed to express an idea as well as functional pottery for people to enjoy in their everyday life. Both my sculpture and my pottery practice involve creating a similar form over and over again. When I am forming small sculptural elements inspired by nature or putting handles on cups, the repetition is soothing, like watching and listening to waves washing up on the shore.
Whether it is the practice of taking time to have tea out of a handmade cup or the creative exercise of arranging pieces within an interactive installation, I hope to have a positive, peaceful impression on people. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of everyday existence, I offer you a moment of respite to be present with the subtle beautiful details of my hand-formed ceramic artwork.”
