Becoming

The series explores the return outward after a period of inward movement and darkness. The weight, enclosure and internal struggle present in the earlier works give way here to a lighter, more open and more organic language. Darkness is neither erased nor forgotten. It remains part of what has been lived through and becomes the ground from which something new can emerge.

This transformation also takes place through material. The heavier and thicker stoneware forms of the earlier series are replaced by white porcelain. Porcelain allows the works to become thinner, lighter and more delicate, while still retaining strength after firing. This contrast becomes an important part of the work: sensitivity does not have to mean weakness.

Flowers emerging from the forms become the clearest sign of this new stage. Here, the flower is not simply a symbol of beauty or nature. It represents something that has been developing internally and has finally found a way to exist outwardly. The inward movement of the previous series begins to grow beyond itself.

White porcelain carries the same transition. After the darker surfaces of the earlier works, white represents not purity or emptiness, but the opening of a new space. It does not erase the past. It marks the possibility of beginning again after it.

The floral forms and softer movements introduce a feminine language to the series. Femininity is approached not as decoration, but through the coexistence of growth, sensitivity, intuition and resilience.

Becoming understands transformation not as becoming someone else, but as moving closer to one's own nature through what has been lived. What emerges after darkness is not a perfect ending, but the possibility of growing again.
