Christina Morali
I studied ceramics, I have been working with clay for years and years, and I still feel the same!
What does ceramic art mean to me? So much. Full of emotions. There are moments of tension and hatred when I don’t want to touch this magical material again! And there are all the other moments, these thousands of wonderful moments when it is like an extension of myself.
The material’s violent distortion is clear in many of my art pieces, as a kind of struggle. This is my relation to the material… we always struggle together, always with love!
