In
my clay work I try to find a language that expresses the fragility, pain,
loneliness and longing that I feel inside myself. There is a lot of insecurity
and vulnerability that stem from many internal struggles of opposing emotions
and needs.
I see my figures as a means of expressing my personal interior world, my
invisible me. Restraint, repression, solitude are as much present as the
need/want to break free from them and from a self-constructed inner wall
that hinders progression.
