Studio Description: My body of art work consists of drawings, stone sculptures and ceramics. Since 2010 I have chosen ceramic sculpture as my main discipline, because the possibilities in clay are endless and the high-temperature chemistry together with self-made glaze concoctions rekindle the scientist in me.
The majority of my ceramic art can best be described as non-functional stoneware, coil-built, with a carved or multilayered surface, using strong colours and/or contrasts. It presents a window to the natural world in the broadest sense. My organic pieces are inspired by the beauty of biological structures, either on a macroscopic or microscopic level, whereas my bowls, plates and vase-like constructions reflect my thoughts on environmental or social issues as well as my own state of mind.
