"My artistic work and the creation of my ceramic sculptures are influenced by observation and research into the diverse structures in nature, particularly the mineral textures of the earth. For me, these are paintings, imprints formed and transformed by natural space and time. I'm particularly interested in the contrasts that are apparently omnipresent in nature, caused by an ongoing evolution that underlines the contradiction between construction and deconstruction, between formation and deformation, between structuring, destructuring and even destruction. What is the mystery of this macroscopic or microscopic nature with its variations, its endless and contrasting forms and structures? I try to make my sculptures reflect the secrets that are omnipresent in nature and in life in general. - Doris Becker
