About

Hi! I’m Jessica, a figurative artist from Sicily, now based in the Netherlands.

I work across two main worlds: ceramics and digital portraiture. Though different in form, both are rooted in my deep love for the tactile, the expressive, and the human figure.

I studied sculpture, which sparked my passion for everything materic and three-dimensional: clay, textures, forms that speak through volume. That same curiosity led me to explore 3D modeling, where I continue to experiment with shape, presence, and space in the digital realm.
Maybe one day I’ll share more about this side of my work too, who knows? And most likely, time will bring sculpture back onto my path, because art and expression are things you simply can’t escape.

What draws me in the most in both my ceramics and illustrations is the face, and especially the gaze. There’s something timeless in the way a face holds emotion and story.
Sometimes I portray gazes without eyes, blank and empty, and I’ve never been able to fully explain why. Maybe it’s because it’s all about what can’t be seen: the mystery of the soul, the part we can feel but never fully grasp.

It’s this quiet tension between what’s visible and what’s hidden that I try to capture, whether in a hand-drawn portrait or a piece of clay that holds a presence of its own.

Thanks for stopping by. If you’re curious about my work, want to commission a piece, or just feel like saying hi, I’d love to hear from you.
