These recent works on paper unfold as ongoing investigations—at once studies and self-contained pieces—tracing patterns observed in plants, landscapes, and ecological systems. Through a layered process of ink and pencil, each composition develops through careful attention and response. Techniques such as suminagashi allow pigment to drift and settle, bleeding into the surface as water directs its movement. Fluidity becomes an active collaborator, shaping forms that hover between intention and chance. This unpredictable, aqueous quality echoes the transformation inherent in clay—its shift from pliable earth to hardened form. As my ceramic sculptures extend drawing into space, these works translate material and process into image, holding a quiet tension between structure and spontaneity.
