The main focus of my works is the connection between textile and ceramic, which creates sensory illusions. My creative attitude is specialized towards experimental activities, thus the result mostly comes into being in an unexpected way. My works are questioning and pushing the boundaries of the materials. My approach is interdisciplinary, which means it belongs to the fields of both textile and ceramic art. Objects are created by the symbiosis of materials.
Is porcelain capable of such a transformation, that could imitate another medium? My works are constructed by an experimental, rethought weaving technique. This enables the creation of structures, which contradict the character of porcelain. Moreover, I play with variations of deformations of structures, that result from high firing in the kiln. Some warping is manipulated consciously however, the final shape also depends on the temperature and how gravitation acts on the objects. In my work process, randomness and purposefulness are present simultaneously. Learning from the results after each firing, makes me consider porcelain as a partner in creation. Using several mediums at the same time results in hybrid objects, which visually trick the senses of people. Viewers discover material that does not seem to be what they expected. My aim is to work without stereotypes of materials and to open new perceptual dimensions.
