Artist, ceramist.

Ceramics gives  me the possibility to create objects with all advantages of sculpture, painting, graphics and even chemistry simultaneously.  It’s a unique expression medium based on experiment.

During my studies in the Ceramics School I learned different techniques of ceramics including majolica, faience, porcelain, glazed tiles and landscape sculpture. Then I made a decision to work on the vessel. Its function is still present but doesn’t play solo.

I make my ceramic objects as prototypes of borders between spaces, continuous or   see-through.  They relate and populate space by themselves.  I model most of my pieces from chamotte  slabs, I haven’t used lately the wheel in my work. I decorate them colorfully with patterns, textures and stamps using a lot of glazes, enamels, oxides, angobs and pigments. I like to make the painting on clay  surface.

I consider the symbolic meaning of my objects important. Often these are traces of the past, the past, and sometimes signs of nature.
