This series, thanks to the juxtaposition of “bare ceramics” and different types of enamel, becomes a symbolic reflection upon bone and muscle and a surface from which the cuts spurt forcefully.
These scars represent the changes brought about by events, unpredictable circumstances that impose themselves onto our idealistic perception of life. To borrow a term from the world of alchemy, we are witnessing a ‘transmutation’ throughout three stages: acceptance, reconciliation, and valorisation.
The artist’s gesture is an attempt to free surfaces and forms from cold, unemotional, and aseptic imagery. It’s a process that makes for human-focused aesthetics and is a hymn to diversity.
The viewer is then confronted with a threshold that is neither fully closed nor wide open. An intimate yet liminal space where the soul is the medium between the material world and the intangible dimension of meaning.
