Artist Statement:
On the temples,
A drop of
Citrus,
Guess
I make ceramic sculptures, drawings and paintings about the possibilities of escape and the joy of now. In these adventures, I experience sensations
and temperature through material, color and form.
With raw edges and the funkiness of my work I’m responding to the chaos and the violence that is happening on Earth. I hope to invite the viewers to fight evil together.
