Drawing on the ancient theory of the four humors, these stoneware vessels explore links between the body, temperament, and nature. Rooted in Ayurvedic traditions and developed through Greek, Roman, and Islamic medicine, humoral theory shaped ideas of health for centuries. It held that each person’s unique balance of humors shaped their personality, appearance, behavior, and relationship with the environment. Each humor corresponded to a temperament and classical element: choleric (fire) signified passion and ambition.

These associations offered a holistic view of identity, well-being, and humanity's place in nature. Inspired by them, each vessel expresses elemental and temperamental balance through form, surface, color, and lively floral arrangements. Both allegories and containers, the works portray the body as continually transforming. Echoing historical classifications, they invite fresh perspectives on identity, wellness, and our relationship with nature.
