Artist Statement:
What may be happen by choosing a 3-dimension element as the basic element to create a bowl.
My interest lies on the separation of the inner from and the outer form.
The look from the outside suspect that something inside is different
Each bowl arises a new question, which I can only answer by creating another bowl.
A suspicion becomes certainty
The Idea of creating bowls from modules is so factinating for me, that it simple doesn’t get out of my mind until now
