Tutti i miei lavori partono dall’ osservazione della natura.
Mi ispiro al paesaggio che mi circonda, contemplando i colori e le forme.A volte può essere un seme, un frutto, un fiore, una foglia colorata; questi elementi possono esprimere fragilità e cambiamenti e io cerco di registrare questa sensazione con il movimento delle mie mani nell’argilla, facendo attenzione ai dettagli.
Vorrei creare una sorta di erbario immaginario, fantastico e corporeo in grado di dare voce al sentimento della natura.
