TENEREZZA . hand built stoneware with colored slips and glazes
This ongoing series is linked to work from an earlier chapter of life when photography was my medium and photographing people holding onto each other and things they loved was one of my interests. This longstanding focus on intimacy and relationships led to my watercolor paintings and the ceramic vessels I'm making today.
Working with clay means tuning in to how wet or dry a piece is at any given stage, and creating double ceramic vessels is challenging, due to technical issues like drying time in tying together separate forms. Tenerezza is at the heart of my work, symbolically and materially. Moving from amorphous, malleable clay, to vitrified, fired ceramics is a process which asks for patience, flexibility, mindfulness, and some skill. The same can be said for our intimate experiences with one another.
