My passion for all things clay gradually evolved after dabbling in brush strokes on bisque ware and porcelain using various glazes and techniques. I wanted more than that and started making my own and learning various techniques. And here, my journey with clay began.
I love creating organic forms, defying the normal structures of figurines, bowls or any other daily use items. I find that working with oxides, greens and blues give me a great sense of staying connected to the earth and water and my works emerge as grounded and minimal pieces that meld with nature. Groggy surfaces that contrast with smooth and rough crackle glazes.
My other works include platters, panels and bowls which are organic and irregular in shapes and textures, as commonly described in Japanese pottery – ‘perfection of the imperfection’. My latest experiment is on a clay carving technique called ‘kurinuki’ - making 'chawans' (japanese tea bowls) , and vases.

Experimenting with different clays and glazing techniques is how I learn from my own experiences and of course mistakes.
I am in a meditative state when I work with clay, and in line with this state of mind, I use my creativity in my kitchen too. I love to play with spices, its aroma, and the transformations. I enjoy both of my passions equally, as I am kneading, be it clay or flour, or mixing oxides or spices to my creations.
