Get to know the process

First we connect, than we create. The Handmade sculptures are made by you and Madison. You create the shapes first by holding hands in an intimate setting. Creating new and literally lasting memories. From the created shapes the artist will create  and I will one connected sculpture. Using their shapes and stories as guidelines to create one telling new piece of art. 

Handmade by Madison

The creation of these sculptures began with the desire to capture a moment of touch, human connection, into something lasting.

During the artist's studies, the pandemic unfolded, exposing a powerful tension: the instinct to reach out and hold someone’s hand, contrasted by the impossibility of doing so. This made the artist aware of how deeply we long for connection, an essential part of our nature.

Through extensive material research, she discovered that clay allowed her to translate the precious moments of touch into form, revealing and honouring the subtle moments of connection we seek.

Not creating something new, but exposing what was already there through art.

Each handmade piece is a collaboration between you and Madison.
