Excerpt from Artist Statement :

“Staying away from the city, I now enjoy a slow-paced life. However, the thoughts have dawned on me that I should have appreciated the little things in my life and have not valued them highly enough. The close contacts we have with those we love, the luxury of being able to daydream. The enriched quality of a kind of existence that is possible when we are not running our lives against a ticking clock. I seem to find peace in a frantic world. Yet, in many ways, it has been idyllic.

My life is filled with paradoxes. At times I feel entangled in grief. We’re the masters of our destiny, but we can’t be on top of everything. So my “ritual pottery” means lots of meditation and implementing little moments of spiritual reflection; whenever and wherever I can to help me silence the noise and find a quiet space to reflect on what comes next. It is a dialogue of my spiritual self, nature and clay.
