Of course!

Daniel Cavey, born in Baltimore, USA, has lived in Italy for many years. The ceramic designer is inspired by pre-Columbian ceramics and biological processes. He transforms animal motifs and the development of cells into limbs into abstract forms, placing great emphasis on the harmony of form and concept. Instead of closed forms, he deliberately prefers openings, a challenge for himself and the viewer. "I want to question the boundaries between artistic and functional pieces and deliberately put the viewer's perception to the test." Many of his works seem to come from another world - the Cavey world!
