Flow

“Flow” is an immersion into the depths of the inner world, beyond what is accessible on the surface. It is a search for a connection with the intangible, an entry into a state of flow where intuition takes the lead. Each work is born from pure improvisation, creating a conversation that has never existed before — a dialogue between the artist and the clay, form and emotion.

At the core of the process lies trust in the material. Just as clay exists in a state of constant transformation, the artist embraces and explores their subconscious inner life. The clay becomes a co-creator, a collaborator, a wise and humane partner that guides.
