I make Nerikomi porcelain “Vessels” which I smoke-fire.
The geometry of patterns in nature is a constant source of inspiration for me. Especially as random chaotic forces, growth, weathering and erosion push the initial perfect symmetry towards imperfection and asymmetry. I am always exploring this balance between symmetry and asymmetry in my work, trying to capture the imperfect perfection.
My work is quiet, contemplative and tactile. The more one looks, the more one sees
