Caterina Roma
Ceramics that transcend time
Her workshop, nestled in a setting seemingly made for inspiration, is a space where magic happens. Here, her pieces transcend the realm of objects. They are fragments of an ongoing conversation with nature, reflections of the land she loves and interprets. Her work resonates with earth, tradition and stories, and each piece emerges from a playful dance of exploration and experimentation, where chance plays a pivotal role.
She admits, “Sometimes, a finished piece isn’t enough.” When a creation only conveys what she intends to express, it becomes necessary to go further: to let the materials speak for themselves. In this way, through her deep bond with nature, she gives voice to what has always been there: the landscape, memory, and the inexorable passage of time.
Her hands shape the earth, a material she gathers from her surroundings: the very earth that sustains us, observing as we rush by. At its core, Caterina’s ceramics are a meditation on our connection to the elements and the legacy that envelops us.
In every piece, you can hear the whisper of the wind, the dialogue of fire, the caress of water, and the weight of the earth. Her creations are not merely decorative; they tell stories, evoke emotions, and remind us of our origins. In the world of Caterina Roma, art becomes a return to the essence, a genuine conversation with the natural world.
