Translating to "the something" in Greek, it encapsulates my deep bond with my craft. Since I began my pottery journey, it has been a source of genuine self-value. The tactile process of shaping clay, the movement of the wheel, and the transformation of raw materials into tangible objects have enriched not only my artistic expression but also brought profound fulfilment and purpose to my life. In the realm of ceramics, I've discovered a medium to shape both clay and my identity, contributing value to my personal journey—
so that's something.
On a more personal note, during my nephew's early attempts at speech, my name proved to be a bit challenging for him to fully articulate.
Opting for a simpler alternative, he affectionately coined me "to kati" at the time.
