    The Bloom ceramic sculpture captures the essence of nature in its fullest expression. It was created with stoneware clay using a variety of ceramic techniques. Wheel-throwing creates smooth, fluid forms, while hand-sculpting introduces unique, expressive details. The use of speckled clay provides a rich, visually interesting texture and adds an organic, natural dimension to the sculpture. The deep turquoise glaze brings in cool water tones that add a refreshing contrast to the speckled base.

    Bloom draws inspiration from the natural world, capturing the interplay of earth, water, and plant life. The sculpture’s forms and textures awaken the warmth and stability of the earth, while the color brings the calming presence of water. These elements come together to create a piece that is both grounded and alive, reflecting the interconnectedness and beauty of the natural environment.

    By combining elements that represent the earth, water, and plant life, this piece invites you to contemplate the cycles of growth and renewal in the natural world.

    Elysia, Sculptural Vase

    620.00

    The Elysia Sculptural Vase draws inspiration from the intricate forms of botany and mycology in a nature. Crafted from rough, speckled stoneware clay using a combination of wheel-throwing and hand-sculpting techniques. This piece showcases the raw, natural beauty of the material, unglazed to highlight its organic, earthy aesthetic. Elysia’s form embodies the complexity of the natural world, while the raw clay symbolizes a return to simplicity and authenticity.

    Elysia draws its name from the Elysian Fields, a paradisiacal realm in Greek mythology associated with the afterlife, where heroes find eternal peace. The reference to the Elysian Fields connects the themes of life, death, and rebirth with the cycles observed in mycology. Fungi, crucial decomposers in nature, transform organic matter into new life, symbolizing the eternal cycle of life and death. This piece serves as a tribute to this transformation, capturing the essence of growth, decay, renewal, and the interconnectedness of life.

    Surge Wave Sculpture

    1,149.00

This artwork invites touch and interaction. Crafted using high-fire stoneware clay and glaze, the piece combines the durability of its material with the ephemeral beauty of natural water forms.

    The inspiration for Surge began with a deeply personal and transformative experience. In 2020, I created a plaster cast of my belly during my pregnancy, which became a cherished memento in my studio. For a couple of years, the mold stood as a beautiful reminder of that time, but its potential for further artistic expression was unclear. In 2023, a moment of clarity led me to see the shape as a wave, marking the second phase of my ceramic wave sculpture journey.
