Process of life is based on circles. Circles of giving and receiving. Contact with the clay belongs definitely in the second group. To hold, to press, to feel, to shape, to observe, to admire and sometimes also to destroy and to start over.
Going through that I find myself closer to me, in a separate space and time. I completely focus on each piece of material I am shaping and at the same time, I am somewhere else. I am at the source of everything, bathing in light, kindness, peace, abundance, happiness.
When I finish a piece – bowl or a tray I come back to me and I realise I am different, my powers were recovered and I feel a sense of satisfaction, happiness and strength.
Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.
