My practice revolves around questioning the functionality and limits of ceramics. During the creation of a piece, I try to test its strengths, cracks, and fragilities, while my thought processes overlap with its execution. There is a level of representation of the material that presents itself: I see how ceramics perform their own circus.

Ceramics, resembling the body, inspire me to create forms that metaphorically represent humans in different situations.Each project is an encounter with the moment when bodies, stripped of their integrity, adapt to or resist geometries, orders, architectures, and control systems.  

My focus is to challenge the prevailing societal inclination to reduce meaning to a fixed state, resisting objectification and utilitarianism.

Instead, I explore the inexpressible, transitional, seemingly useless, and illegible concepts. I strive to distort representation, allowing it to waver and falter, aiming to awaken the spiritual, ephemeral, and sensual aspects through intentional disruption.
