The artist is intrigued by the same sentiment expressed by Joan Miró - to attain the maximum of intensity with the minimum of means. At a young age and for many years to follow, Maestro Pawlu Grech was his tutor, mentor and friend guiding him in the formation of his artistic character through the mastering of various techniques, as well as continuous discussions together with other art and music students. In parallel to this, his academic and professional studies in environmental science provided a distinctive perspective of the world where scientific examination and observation lead to creative expression. The parallelism between the natural world and human experience is a recurring theme in his works. Through his ceramic works he transmits the inner preoccupations and fragility of the human soul. The soft clay medium, which is then stone fired, is in itself an allegory of one’s life challenges that mould every individual in a unique way. The artist plays with form and texture, limiting the use of colour, laying bare the organic core of the piece without any additional distractions.
