About the work
Reches’s ceramic forms begin with the contours of her own body. One follows the precise measurements of a real woman; the others emerge through sculptural manipulations of the original silhouette - stretched, compressed, enlarged, or narrowed. Each piece is the result of a slow, physical, and mental process, in which the artist engages in a deep dialogue with the material.
This ongoing study of volume, proportion, and presence continues at the wheel, where the clay’s own physicality reveals itself. The dialogue between body and material lies at the heart of her clay-body practice.
The resulting vessels offer an invitation into her sensory and emotional journey with clay. Unglazed and unadorned, their bare surfaces revealing the truth of the material itself. Within their simplicity echoes something ancient: a trace of local ceramic traditions.
