Vases and Organic Forms
Conical oversized vases with strong organic elements and the uninhibited development of form are inspired by the natural colors of Greece. The unique light due to Greece’s geographical location creates bursts of color; red of the summer sunsets, the hues of the Mediterranean Sea at sunrise, the sand and stones at the seashore, the rocks on the islands, the green of the pine trees and the yellow of its pollen. The edges of the forms may be emphatically unfinished, cut and cracked like the volcano in Thira, Santorini.
HOLLOW FORMS and FUNCTIONAL VESSELS INSPIRED BY STONES
The concave and convex forms inspired by the natural colored stones on Greece’s shores, provoke you to envelop it within your hand; to embrace it, or to immerse yourself inside.
Stone grey, beige tones of sand, wet green stones, terracotta red.
JARS
Large jars inspired by traditional Greek Ceramics.
Keeping in line with the traditional Greek jar shapes, their form and coloring evolves. I often like to emphasize the finishing on the neck giving it dynamism with strong color or texture.
