The modern ceramics tradition is spreading. In the eye of the storm, its path is difficult to fathom. And I feel in the mids of today’s ceramics storm. But despite the fact that my hair has been blown before my eyes, I see a new wind direction emerging. A new course that I think is worth fighting for.

The new capital is the shared knowledge, worldwide. New groups unite around digital platforms such as FB, Insta, linkedIn, as well as specific sites for potters such as glazy.org. In these kinds of environments, knowledge is shared, opinions are cast and discussions are held.

In other words, culture is created. A new tradition is developing, not along bounderies of location, land borders or a supposed shared history. A new ceramics tradition: you may think so, but why would you fight?
