everything i like to do
I am Céline. I am from Belgium and was born to a Greek family. and I think that partially explains my eagerness for life, my love for joy, and my attraction to beauty and light.
I started ceramics simply because I wanted to create my own candles. Clay was the obvious medium through which that idea could exist. And when I lit my candles for the first time, something I had made with my own hands reflected something back to me: my time, my attention, my growing skills, and the joy it gave me along the way. And I found beauty there too : in the fact that the light of my candles was a quiet dialogue between what I had created and what the act of creating made me feel.
And I feel kind of the same feeling when I put light on people's stories.
DIMITRA
Milan Kundera once wrote that a life is composed the way music is, that we take what happens to us by chance and turn it into a motif, a note that returns and gives shape to everything after it. Without even realizing it, he said, we build our lives according to laws of beauty. I think this is why I love branding. It's not so different from what he described, taking moments, ordinary details, stories, and finding the note that runs through them. I like to put light on a story, with poetry, and give it a shape it didn't quite have before. Not inventing something new, just helping people see the motif that was already there.
when it comes to my story, i like to think that light is its motif, the metaphorical thread that ties my roots and my freedom : light is what lets you see where you come from, and it is also what draws you forward, toward wherever you're going next.
