Often he let the manufacturing process become part of the finished work. Leaving traces of the process in the objects, as a memory of its making. By using the randomness and the controlled in a process he makes work that raises questions about its being and creation.This method oriented process can take its expression in a ceramic object, or in a documented performance.
