The Moon and Her Mother
Aesop's Fable.

One night, the Moon was shining quietly in the sky. From high above, she suddenly started noticing that the people on Earth looked very colourful and different from each other. She realised that this was because they all wore beautiful clothes!
She thought, ‘0, I wish I could also have a nice cloak made from the colours of the rainbow!’
As morning drew near, the Sun came up. It was time for the Moon to sleep. But, she went to her Mother and said, “Dear Mother, people look beautiful in colourful clothes. How I wish to have a colourful cloak for myself, too! Will you please make one for me?”
The Moon’s Mother smiled at her and said, “My dear child, I would love to make a cloak for you but how can I do so? Right now you have a new body but soon you will start increasing in size and finally, become bigger. Because of your changing size, you will not fit into anything I make for you.”
The Moon, sadly, agreed with her Mother. She, then, went to bed till the arrival of night.
But eventually she came to realize her own beauty. After that day The Moon never asked for rainbow coloured cloak. She knew her own light was prettier than any other rainbow.

I find the connection with the nature true the materials, that I use for my artworks. The connection is deep and powerful.
It gives to the painting different vibrations. The paint is vibrant because of the tiny crystal peaces inside the pigment. Those crystals reflects the light showing all spectral diversity. It gives the the sense of movement. The painting seems “alive”.

Soil palettes and water bowls.
The material itself is safe, resistant to moisture and heat. The glaze is coated expressively, allowing the process to be completed in the flames of the oven, where matter as it meets us is born.

Patterns what never repeats.

In our creative work at Essee, we have deliberately chosen the direction shown by our ceramic palettes and other forms of soil material. They represent the primordial simplicity and beauty of the unpredictable moment of creation that exemplifies dialogue with its user.

Enjoying the journey together.
