Ceramic Sculpture
I explore the vulnerability of human nature. I mold vulnerability into figurative or abstract images. I transform this concept into a manifesto of accepting one’s ordinariness as the other side of strength and advantages. This leads us to the joy of being, to realizing the value of everyday small events, and to enjoying “ordinary” happiness.
