Ceramics Instructor | Pottery
I chose ceramics because I’ve always been drawn to working with natural materials and creating objects that are both expressive and enduring. Clay offers the perfect balance of fluidity and permanence, allowing me to shape ideas by hand before fire transforms them into lasting forms.
My practice is rooted in exploration. Every type of clay, firing atmosphere, and kiln cycle reveals new possibilities, making ceramics an endlessly evolving medium. This constant discovery keeps my work fresh and challenges me to push beyond familiar techniques.
Inspired by the rhythms, textures, and patterns found in nature, I explore the marks left by time, movement, and fire. I’m fascinated by how these elements interact on the clay’s surface, creating pieces that reflect the quiet logic and beauty of the natural world. Through this ongoing conversation between material, process, and environment, I seek to create work that is both grounded and transformative.
