Ego Sum Terra (I am Earth)
Religions and cultures across the world have used the elements of the natural world in ceremonies and rituals for millennia and it is this connection that has inspired my latest series of works. The series is called Ego Sum Terra ( I am Earth), which explores the spiritual relationship we humans have with our world. We rely on nature for our existence, our physical, mental and spiritual well being. Humans and nature, we are essentially as one.
My Ego Sum Terra (I am Earth) series focuses on the blurring of this boundary. Organic earthy forms combine with ones more ordered and refined. Repeated layers of delicate porcelain sheets merge with and emerge from textured and cracking surfaces blending into one united piece.
