Before shaping my first large piece, I had already made more than 200 small ones. Cups, small plates, ornaments. Pieces made slowly, one by one, learning along the way.
I keep them all with care. They are part of my beginning.
It was in the studio of my teacher, Magali Ercolin, that something changed.
One day she showed me a book that was there among the materials, almost as if it had been waiting to be found.
The book is called:
「手びねりでつくる食の器」
(Tableware made with hand-building techniques)
