ceramic pieces
My artistic research is deeply rooted in my Somali inner knowledge, blending ancestral wisdom with my creativity. Using rare clay, I craft ceramics that reflect the resilience and rhythmic aesthetics of my culture. Each piece embodies a balance between tradition and innovation, connecting my heritage to my work in architecture, material, and art. These creations are not just objects—they are a dialogue between form, function, and identity, carrying the spirit of my ancestors into the present.
clay, pulse, ancient, bold,
earth whispers secrets that never grow old,
somalia’s sands to the fire’s embrace,
carve out the future, wearing time on my face.
I am rhythm, I am form, resilient and strong,
in my veins, where I’ve belonged all along,
echoes of my past, in every curve I trace,
grace in the fire, in the white brown black golden clay’s grace.
lines and edges, sharp and sleek,
ancestral voices, it’s them I seek,
