Inspired by artefacts found in the region of the Mediterranean, from the Bronze Age ceramic ritualistic pots to the 20th century traditional embroideries, I destine my pieces to carry patterns, animals and plants, realising a dialogue of earth, fire and living things of our Great Sea across millennia.
Trained to deliver high-end craftsmanship in the lines of British studio pottery, my commitment to excel in technical skill is as strong as my desire to instill the narrative and beauty of the treasures of my cultural heritage into my work. From hand-building and throwing to slip-casting I use the making method most fitting to each project I take on. For me, understanding glaze chemistry is as fundamental as making, experimenting to discover new extraordinary qualities, vibrant colours and intriguing textures that cover my ceramic surfaces and complement my forms.
