I create intuitively most of the time. When I first started my brand, my idea was to create sculptural yet functional objects. It was also a reaction to a market flooded with mass produced objects.

Terra is recognisable for the technique of pinching. I also combine techniques such as coil building and slab making. It is very important to me to convey my love for the process and the material through my objects, and these techniques, based on a direct play between hand and the material, show this.

I am inspired by creation, and clay is the medium that allows me to materialise my thoughts. Sometimes inspiration flashes like lightning, sometimes it is necessary to contemplate. Imagination has the miraculous power to recognise infinite possibilities in the most ordinary situations.

The world of ceramics is extremely complex, and I am still discovering it. It is a process of lifelong learning. As long as there are still layers of the craft to discover, so I will continue to fall in love with it.
