“Ceramic forms take on organic forms depending on how one approaches the material. The clay was innocently made into one piece. The movement of instinct and unconscious nature are being pulled out. That form leads to the acquisition of a true self, and by making it every day, a new me is born, and the form also changes.” - Artist Statement, April 2021
