Studio & Practice

All pieces are made by me from start to finish in my studio in Haifa. 

I find the qualities of trusting the body, discovery through experience and individuality are both the aims and the means. Each day in the studio is an opportunity for me to be a body - to be present in my attention and physicality, to be silent in my mind and intuitive in my actions, to unlearn what I’ve seen and allow new discoveries. The shapes created through my pinching practice keep surprising me, as each piece unfolds and develops into its own potential. The same goes for all painted ceramic pieces - the drawing or patters become clear to me only once the brush travels on their surface.

I often notice that I’m naturally in a need of moving and breathing while working, and so my studio practice has developed in a way that allows me to work while pacing, standing and generally moving around.

I believe our senses are of utmost importance, and one of the ways to develop and favor them is to indulge in wonderful textures, delightful shapes and nourishing experiences. Another way is to develop our ability to perceive reality attentively through description, without holding on to an opinion such as good or bad. My written projects have been an intuitive way to explore this, while asking questions about the meaning of words and questioning my own interpretations. 

I hope my work can encourage you to become more of your sensual self.
