巨龍的火焰
把陶器捧在手中。這個簡單的動作重新連接了我們與大地、與古代鐵匠和鍊金術師以及巨龍的火焰,也連結了那場利用大自然將一個想法賦予形體的奮鬥。連結了總是自覺渺小的人類。

火、土、水、氣。我們利用這四大元素重現創世的過程。一位知道不冒險就做不出任何創新與感動的藝術家,他的工作就是賦予四大元素形體與生命。從一位工匠進化成藝術家,代表要離開舒適圈並永遠忠於直覺與那些靈光乍現的瞬間。

決定走上創作的路之後就沒有停歇的一天。昨天的作品已死,重複的創作則是自殺。




 

The fire of the dragon

The mere act of taking a pottery in our hands reconnects us with the earth, reconnects us with old blacksmiths and alchemists, with the fire of the dragon, with the great battle of shaping an idea in struggle with the elements. Of man, who has always felt insignificant in this world.

Fire, Mud, water and air, elements with which we work, we repeat the steps of the creation of the world, tame them, give them shape and breathe life is the work of the artist who knows that if he does not take risks he will not be able to create anything new or inspiring, Moving from artisan to artist means leaving the comfort zone and being always receptive to intuition and moments of serendipity.

There is no rest, if you have decided to create. The work you did yesterday is already dead and if you repeat you have died.
