STATEMENT
My work explores the potential of porcelain by mean of different techniques; several artworks and collections share the softness of shapes, whose basic design is combined with movements and deformations created by high firing temperature.
I like handling porcelain as a cloth, emphasizing the softness and lightness or cut to thin wires to weave together and randomly overlap to create big bundles of porcelain that “protect” or “close in” a shape like cotton bandages.
In lamps collections, porcelain is worked in very thin slabs where I like to combine texture’s effects with designs created by removing part of the material; for all my artworks I want to have a double function: visual ad tactile.
