Through the aesthetic of the handmade I attempt to create objects, which stem from a notion of beautiful delicacy and refinement. I question simple materials: clay, wood and cloth, individually and in relation to each other.
In my work, I try to access a world, which no longer exists except perhaps in a few inaccessible and forgotten spots. Yearning for the romance of bygone eras that invoke a sense of grandeur and elegance, I strive to create objects that prompt nostalgia. Our cultures explanation of history often seems like a fragment of the truth or a vestige of the past.
Our existence is a story made up of past happenings, leading us to remain with memories that capture and purify images and sensations. Memories are desirable manifestations because complete access to them is unattainable. I am intrigued by this inaccessible part of the psyche- the place where your imagination begins and conscious thoughts end. The mind is a place where one is able to keep secrets, travel, envelop and protect oneself.
