The ceramic work of Rafaela de Ascanio explores clay as a site of transformation, where form emerges through iterative, process driven gestures. Her vessels serve as surface for painterly interventions - applied through layered pigments, washes, and marks that extend the sculptural process. Balancing organic suggestions with structural precision, her pieces emphasize texture , weight and subtle tensions between interior and exterior, resulting in works that feel both intimate and in flux.
