I completed my studies in Hungary in a vocational training equivalent to the Spanish Grado Medio in Spain, focused entirely on the ceramic arts. During those four years I learned both the more traditional techniques and industrial processes, and although I became fluent on the potter's wheel, I always felt more connected to manual work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"817\" data-end=\"1246\">I am particularly attracted to asymmetrical and organic shapes. I work with manual techniques such as pinching, pressing and churros, which allow me to model freely and follow the intuition of touch. I often incorporate natural textures into my pieces, pressing leaves, shells or even seaweed into the fresh clay. This dialogue with nature inspires me deeply: each mark is a trace of life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1248\" data-end=\"1651\">Lately, I have been creating small statues of women and fantasy creatures. These figures are not only an artistic exercise, but also a way to connect with an ancient tradition. From protohistory to antiquity, many cultures have depicted female figures in ceramics: from the famous prehistoric Venus to the goddesses of fertility, motherhood and earth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1653\" data-end=\"2024\">These statuettes were not just decorative objects; they were symbols of power, life and protection. They embodied beliefs, desires, natural cycles and the sacred. Today, in modelling my own female figures, I feel that I am paying homage to those roots: celebrating the strength, sensuality, spirituality and creativity that dwells in every woman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2026\" data-end=\"2239\">Each piece is unique, imperfect, and with its own character. And that is precisely what fascinates me. To return to ceramics is, for me, to return to a language that speaks without words, from the hands and from the earth.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despu\u00e9s de muchos a\u00f1os trabajando con la cer\u00e1mica de forma intermitente, decid\u00ed retomarla con m\u00e1s frecuencia y convertirla en una ocupaci\u00f3n permanente en mi d\u00eda a d\u00eda creativo.
