"To me, a balanced form is something imperfect. Of course, not all imperfect forms are balanced. If the form has no trace or imprint of its surrounding events or it is forced to form on its own, it becomes off-balanced. Wet and/unfired clay is an undetermined condition. It absorbs all the information from its surrounding environment. It absorbed all the information such as heat, motions and even my emotions. What I am trying to look at in my work is this balance.”
