"Constructing pots is a game, where I play with our perception of reality. Any wit or subtle humour in the ceramics is intended. The simple shapes and spaces described by the drawn illusion, is contrasted by the solidity of clay, where the surface patterns and textures give contrary evidence, that of a shallow form"
