Touch, in my opinion, is the most underrated and undervalued of the senses. It has the power -
to Heal,
to Soothe,
to Hurt,
to Love,
to Create.
The way a lover's skin feels during a passionate moment.
The way mud feels squishing through my toes.
The way porcelain slides through my hands and fingers as I unawaredly manipulate it in the way my mind wants.
- This is how I create.
I create through a stream of consciousness and it's very freeing because my hands just create whatever my brain is directly telling them to do. There's no pre-planning so it frees the mind from responsibility, allowing the mind to revel and enjoy the beauty of the moment. As I am eternally fascinated by the purity of form and fluidity within the seas' depths, my hands "massage" sculptures into being inspired by the creatures and oceanic movements found within. Squishing clay through my fingers... The sensuality of it is like nothing else and that is why I choose to use no other tools, apart from my hands, when I sculpt.
