Ars poetica
The way I see it and I do believe that traditional cultures are may be of great
significance in the future. Especiallyin a world where there is a loss of value.
This is the very culture that is capable of preserving and displaying values
that go back to a hundred, sometimes to a thousand years. It presents itself
to us condensed in the different genres and at the same time with incomparable
purity and honesty.
The very soul, the scale of values and morals of a nation, an ethnic group
become this way comprehensible to us. On basis of these values one can get
familiar with other nations, other cultures, the world becomes intelligable
for us. The shape, the ornament of certain objects or a dance-step, the ligature
of a tune carry meaning, furthermore they generate feelings regardless of
who speaks in which language. Communication takes place more easily, nations
possessing different culturesbecome understandable to each other.
Promoting tradition ensures a constant living from the roots, the clean spring,
just as the church tower of the village shows the right direction in the distance,
where one finds his home. Regardless of the fact that peasant community that
once created this art no longer exists, I still believe that the place in
universal culture it represents is just as important as any other art does.
Simply because it had been brought to beauty, honesty and truth by the very
soul of a community. Having undertaken practising and preserving this culture,
at the same time I became responsible for passing it on.
Simultaneously with
the lifting smoke a substance is disappearing from our world for ever. From the
embrace of the four ancient elements water, ground, air and fire a new
substance is born - CERAMICS.She is a Herald as well who is making both the
endless time and the creating MAN known to the future.
