Visual Artist with 25 years of experience in multi media projects and 5 years of experience using Ceramics and Bronze as sculptural medium.
Jojo Corväiá's work explores the concept of freedom of expression, abstraction and imperfection.
“In essence, I’m not interested in perfection. Being free of flaws and defects directly contradicts my idea of freedom of expression, and I see my work as a vehicle for communicating freedom. I connect each piece with my thoughts, with memories and feelings. Each piece turns into a diary, and a series of them become books, written with an idiomatic force that my hands can only achieve at the contact with. There is no way to hide an emotion. I have to be one hundred percent with each piece for it to arise, and at that moment the piece and I are one. If I make a bowl, a table or a complex sculpture, all you see is a captured moment, maybe even an instant; all you see is me. I know this because working on my pieces is the closest I have ever seen myself.”
