Clay, Alchemy
Personal Research 2016 - Today
In recent years I have been exploring the value of matter, knowing what kind of clays provide which properties, and knowing how far to push earth's values under fire...
properly more than ceramics I could call it an alchemy job...
From 1050ºC, 1150ºC to 1250ºC, I have composed high-quality clays with clays from the central region of Mexico, Mexican Pink Kaolin, and Kaolin from Asia.

The alchemical process is very interesting, since certain clays behave in
a particular way when applying fire in a quite particular way,
the burning process is not only about taking the oven to a certain temperature, it is about knowing when to apply fire to obtain certain results, that is the magic of the alchemical process of ceramics
