“Creativity takes courage.” ~ Henri Matisse
Born in Romania and now based in Switzerland, I am an artist, maker, and workshop host passionate about creativity, slow living, and meaningful human connection. Through ceramics, sourdough baking, drawing, and hands-on artistic practices, I create experiences that invite people to slow down, reconnect with their senses, and rediscover the joy of making something with their own hands.
With a background in Graphic Design, Stage & Costume Design, Photography, and Ceramics, my work combines visual storytelling with tactile exploration. Over the years, I have developed workshops that focus not only on learning a skill, but also on creating space for curiosity, experimentation, and presence.
What began as a personal need for creative balance during motherhood gradually evolved into a deeper exploration of handmade practices and mindful creation. I discovered that working with clay, bread dough, charcoal, or natural materials can become a grounding ritual, one that brings calm, focus, and connection in a fast-moving world.
Today, I offer intimate workshops and creative experiences in ceramics, sourdough bread baking, drawing, and other artistic practices for beginners and curious creatives alike. My workshops are designed to feel warm, welcoming, sensory, and inspiring, often shared around coffee, brunch, conversation, and the simple pleasure of creating together.
I believe art is not only about the final object, but about the experience itself: learning to trust your hands, embrace imperfections, observe more deeply, and reconnect with your own creativity.
