“Habit robs us of the power to perceive anew, much less the power to be moved.” (Soetsu Yanagi, The Beauty of the Everyday Things).

Every project is a new journey. Nothing pleases me more than a creative journey through the things, the objects. That may be the reason why I studied drama where I learned to work with others, to improvise, to listen, to dance. That may be also the reason why I connected with ceramics and clay, the dance of the matter with my hands which brought me, little by little, almost unconsciously, to the marvelous world of the objects.

I never start working nor creating from scratch. I’m always accompanied by my accomplices—the colors, materials, and the objects. They talk to me. I make them proposals. They respond. I challenge them. We laugh. We play. We respect each other. Then, unexpected and surprising worlds emerge from the playing. Worlds that already existed. Worlds that I then comprehend, after the silent confessions of the observation and the touch, and I’m able to materialize for them to narrate themselves.

Every project is a new journey. For me, for the object, for the observer.
