Clay Relief Series

This signature piece features a semi-three-dimensional botanical relief that casts beautiful shadows. The clay base is envisioned as a miniature garden, and the work is created using a unique technique in which clay particles, measured in millimeters, are shaped into flowers and leaves with a needle and then secured in place. Since I create these entirely freehand—without any preliminary sketches or molds—no two pieces are ever exactly alike. Whether it’s a vibrant design bursting with blooms or a simple composition that highlights the beauty of branches and leaves, every piece is a one-of-a-kind creation.

I strive to create designs that are timeless and elegant, yet light and airy, unaffected by fleeting trends or the passage of time.

Since there are no domestic manufacturers of polymer clay—my primary material—I source it from Germany and Belgium. I also create my own unique color and texture blends. Fired at high temperatures, this relatively new material is both water-resistant and durable. It is characterized by its lightness and sturdiness—it won’t break even if dropped.
