Contaminazioni orientali
Experimenting with new forms with red earth from Ibiza Earthenware, resins, assemblages, shapes and colours.
For some time, I had the desire to work with clay, and living in Ibiza during the winter, I was drawn to this wonderful material to experiment with its technical and expressive processes. The island of Ibiza has preserved large, wild, and unspoiled natural areas, and even those cultivated by humans evoke an ancient form of agriculture, where time seems to stand still, connecting with its primordial aspects. These visual stimuli and the contact with such strong, authentic nature were the driving force behind my experimentation with clay. What a wonderful journey… shaping the material, feeling its texture between my fingers, and watching the form grow and take shape in my hands is an experience that connects you with your deeper self, naturally leading you into a meditative state. To create my pieces, I predominantly used the coil technique, which predates the potter’s wheel and was used by early humans for their first creations. For inspiration, I turned to nature, with which I have always had a deep love, as well as to symbols and spiritual experiences that have been part of my life’s journey.
