How would you describe your style, your artistic approach, in a few words?
My style blends minimalism and wabi-sabi. I shape my pieces entirely by hand, without a potter's wheel, so they are often a little quirky, and always unique despite being produced in series. I believe the interplay of personal touch and materiality is easily evident in my various creations.
In short, I would say I have three main areas of focus. The first is poetry. My love of literature and my background in cultural mediation gave me the idea of imprinting poetry onto my functional ceramics (cups and vases) to bring literature into people's homes. The second is the material itself. I like to leave it raw on many pieces to highlight its natural beauty and sensuality. Finally, the third area of my work is the heart. I am currently creating a series of 100 unique anatomical hearts, whose variety of shapes and colors is an ode to diversity. For each heart adopted, I donate a portion of the proceeds to the AIDES association, which fights against HIV and hepatitis.
