Artist Statement

My practice explores vulnerability and uncomfortable emotions through material, colour and form, transforming inner experiences into something tangible and felt.

Ceramics is at the centre of my current practice, offering a way to embrace imperfection and let go of expectations. Inspired by the overlooked beauty of the natural world, I create sculptural forms that magnify small natural objects, revealing the extraordinary microcosmos of nature. Through experimentation with clay bodies, textures, slips and glazes, I explore the relationship between material, emotion and the intricate details of the world around us.

Central to my work is a series of forms I describe as “demons” — not figures of fear, but embodiments of emotional states that inhabit my inner world. Through sculpture, I transform darker emotions into forms that are tactile and colour-driven. Each piece evolves through an intuitive process of adding, removing and rearranging, becoming a negotiation between control and surrender.

Together, my works explore the relationship between inner emotional landscapes and the natural world, finding connections between vulnerability, imperfection and overlooked beauty.
