A collection where the artist personally selects and holds their favorite creations, showcasing a deeply personal reflection of their journey, evolution, and the themes that resonate most with them.
Neriage is a sophisticated ceramic art technique where multiple coloured clays are layered, kneaded, and shaped to create intricate, marbled patterns. This method, rooted in Japanese tradition, results in unique and mesmerizing designs that highlight the artist's skill and creativity.
A pottery technique where clay is shaped into forms on a rotating potter's wheel, allowing for symmetrical and rounded shapes, often used for creating bowls, vases, and other vessels.
These functional glazes provide smooth, even coatings, providing a consistent and professional finish. This technique ensures a flawless, glossy surface that enhances the beauty of the ceramics and can make the piece fully functional.
