I’ve had a pressing desire to reinvent myself since I quit being an architect to pursue an MBA.

I had the intention of goig back to architecture right after, but life, and the MBA, got on my way and I never did. The need to keep making directed me to clay and it ended up being a better way and scale for me to create space.

Every so often I feel stuck, like I’ve been doing the same work forever. I need to peruse around my images to see the subtle change that has been happening, very slowly. I recently started playing around with a dark brown porcelain, combines with the white one. The result is divine, the overlap of the clay bodies creates a delicious buttery and lightly tinted texture. I still feel like the change is minor. But isn’t that what it takes to reinvent oneself, small shifts, tiny steps that add up?

Still, architecture is always in the back of my brain, I dream of being able to reinvent myself as an architect one day.
