MENOPAUSE AND MORE

Menopause and More reflects a stage of life often experienced privately, yet shared by many. Through nerikomi vessels and figurative elements, I explore menopause as a period marked by disruption, humor, vulnerability, and renewal, while also considering the broader transitions that come with time, perspective, and self-rediscovery.

Familiar objects carry emotional moments—heat, stillness, uncertainty, resilience, and joy. Hidden spaces and layered patterns echo transformations not always visible from the outside.

I see ceramics as a living language where function and feeling meet. Clay holds touch, pressure, and time, becoming a quiet witness to transformation and adaptation.
