Over the summer in Paris, I was fortunate to rent a studio at Sous
Terre, a shared ceramics space in Belleville. When I moved to Paris
in May, I had no intention of setting up a studio straight away. I
wanted to take time to think, to read, and to not feel the pressure to
be in the studio day in, day out. But that didn’t last long.
Until then, I’d been making small pen drawings in my notebook— simple meditations on daily life in a new city, using red, blue, and black ballpoint pens. Their scale and limited palette felt right for this period of transition, and they naturally informed the ceramics that followed. This body of work grew from those drawings and speaks to the subtle, quiet moments of finding one’s rhythm in a new place.
