Clay is my language. It grounds me — both physically and emotionally — and offers a way to connect with the natural world while giving form to inner experiences. My work begins with a deep respect for the earth and a desire to create pieces that reflect our relationship with nature, and our shared responsibility to protect it.

I approach clay intuitively, allowing its rhythm and resistance to guide me. The process is slow, physical, and imperfect — a quality I’ve come to embrace as a strength. Each piece carries traces of time, thought, and touch. I’m drawn to raw textures, quiet irregularities, and organic forms that echo natural elements: stones, bones, shells, weathered surfaces.

In a world that often rushes past both stillness and care, my hope is that these works invite attentiveness — to shape and detail, to our environment, and to the fragile systems we are all part of.

I live and work in Amsterdam, but clay continually reminds me that I belong to something older, quieter, and infinitely larger — something worth listening to, and worth protecting.
