Crafted using age-old Dacian techniques, the vessels emerging from the wheel of master ceramist DANIEL LEȘ exude both surprise and serenity. Their clean lines curve with audacity and the gentle illusion of malleable clay is countered by a metallic resonance upon touch. Delicate striations, tracing the path of the artisan's hand, invite tactile exploration. Each piece promises a distinct sensory journey.
DANIEL LEȘ inherited his craft from his father, drawing profound inspiration from the village of his youth. As a ceramist, he sought to capture and evoke the essence of his childhood realm. His figurative ceramics vividly depict characters from the Romanian village of Maramureș, encapsulating traditions and customs passed down through generations, though they are increasingly rare today. His creations, shaped and finished through time-honored clay processing methods, are fired at temperatures exceeding 1000 degrees Celsius, ensuring their utmost resilience.
