“When an object has a logic on its own, it starts to talk of many other things. It’s not that it represents anything, but it represents its own reason to exist, in a way, as material – as clay, terra cotta, in relation with bricks, in relation with the construction, with pottery, with many things and the body.” – Gabriel Orozco
The “creation of man from clay” is a miraculous birth theme that recurs throughout world religions and mythologies. – Wikipedia
