FIGURE Nº3 Sculpture

I work creating organic forms, modelled in clay, which start from the circle and the work of the ceramic lathe. When I started working with this technique I realized that everything "revolved around" the feminine. The earth, the circle and the forms that came out of this millenary technique, which produces utensils that contain food, also very related to women. Soon I visualized the vases and the jars as symbols of the feminine body. The water jug, generous, that distributes and gives its life to the family. Pitchers that do not usually have a handle. Let no one force them to serve.... Free jugs, free women.... who give, of their own free will. My sculptures or Totems, composed of stacked ceramic pieces, come from the field of utilitarian ceramics. Bowls, vases, plates, cups, which when taken out of context become abstract geometrical figures. I don't glaze the pieces, I let the material speak. Once they are made, they are deformed and perforated and then they are passed through an iron tube, creating vertical shapes.
