The grace of Tilda.
One of my sculpting teachers said once that every sculpture is, in some way, a self-portrait.
Working on this piece, I felt that truth: the calm, the tension, the androgynous elegance, the softness and the edge.
Maybe thatā€™s why Tilda has always been an icon for meā€”part muse, part mirror.
When I grow older, I want to be like her.

šŸ’­One of my childhood dreams just came true and it was absolutely magical.
Standing before these monuments felt like stepping into the origin of visual language itself. I spent hours examining the details and trying to take in as much as I could.
It is fascinating how ancient artists followed sacred rules for depicting the human body ; from the stylized fingers to the poses and symmetry ā€” creating a consistent and timeless visual rhythm that still speaks today.
This journey reminded me why I fell in love with form, balance, and beauty in the first place

Inspiration from my recent journey to Trieste
šŸŗāœØāœØāœØ
There is a quiet power in history , I can see it in the raw surface of clay, in the worn edges that carry time within them.
These fragments remind me how beauty endures, even in its most weathered form. What a treasure to encounter such a collection, open freely to allšŸ«¶

To bring a splash of color, I give you these tulips.
I love immortalizing beauty ā€” sometimes through the lens, sometimes through clay. Both photography and sculpting let me hold onto a fleeting moment a little longer ā¤ļø

The touch. Recovery series.
This sculptural self-portrait consists of three separate, interactive elements, when rearranged they shift the perspective: both physically and emotionally.
Part of the Recovery Series, this work continues my exploration of healing, vulnerability, and the quiet resilience found in touch.

Petalhead 1.02
Refined self portrait in petals.
This is the second version of a piece I began last year. The first sculpture cracked in the kiln, and the glaze came out overpowering. That felt symbolic in itselfā€”like the fragility of healing, when things fall apart even as you try to put them back together.
I returned to the piece with more clarity and intention.
In this version, the details are sharper, more defined.

āœØ It might seem like a small step, but for me itā€™s huge ā€” Iā€™ve just moved into a shared studio space!
From day one, Iā€™ve been loving the energy, the sense of community, and the creative buzz around me.
Canā€™t wait to see how this new chapter will shape and inspire my practice. Feeling excited, grateful, and so ready! šŸ§”šŸ”ØšŸŽØ

Flowers are an endless source of inspiration in my work. One of my favourite afternoon rituals is to take a quiet stroll with a coffee in hand, wandering through the front gardens of my beautiful neighbourhood.
Last month, I passed a rose bush with the most magnificent shades of orange, their scent rich with the sweetness of apricots.
As I stood there admiring them, the kind owner of the house offered to cut a few for me. I carried them home like treasureā€”and they were so enchanting, I had to immortalise them in this photograph.
A small moment, a quiet gift, a lasting muse.
