I have developed a technique that I named “CUT & STRETCH.” It consists of making incisions in the surface of my ceramic work and then pulling, lengthening, or widening it, resulting in uncontrollable clefts and fissures. These are created due to the non-uniform thickness and consistency of the clay. The surface beautifully displays the traces of my creative journey, and it is during the firing of the piece that this special moment is truly established.
