My ceramic works are sculptural objects in which I try to integrate three-dimensional form with elements of drawing and painting. Shape becomes an occasion to explore texture and colour.

On the surface of simple forms I explore the possibilities of traditional ceramic finishes (glazes, slips and coloured clays) contrasted with antagonistic ingredients (metal pieces, glass and keramzyt.) Some of the sculptural objects evolve directly from intuitive gesture. Some of them are the result of meticulous design and preparation. Function, which is connected with ceramic in some obvious way, is treated as an additional value.

My latest works are massive, oval forms inspired by organic stone shapes into which I integrate delicate porcelain vessels or other functional and semi-functional pieces. The contrast between the coarse primitive textures and delicate civilised forms sets up an elusive tension in my work.
