- Lera means Clay,  thus Lalera= theClay

Sculptor. Mayhaps a neither complete
nor correct denomination for me.
Who I am matters less than
what I do.

I look like that, anyway  ---------->

    My choice of material  above all is stoneware clay.
I work it with a stone,  sticks of wood, and I
do it without a throwing wheel. A stoneage
kind of technique.

Pictures!

Most of the objects in the pictures
are sold. For information, feel free to email me.

The quality of the pictures may wary, 
caused by my former lacking insight in the
need for having good pictures 
of my work.

 

 

The choice of motif follows two separate lines.

One is the humouristic, empathyinducing line,
often animals in human form, or perhaps
humans in animal form?

The other is the serious line, often with associations
to the neolithic and paleolithic european cultures
that I am so drawn to and love to tell about.
They tell about our origins and about the
origins of our present culture. They also
reveal a lot about us now, in this age.

I am most fascinated by the matrilinear, matrilocal,
matrifocal culture that evolved during many thousands
of years and then was crushed by the patriarchy and
still is the foundation on which the patriarchal cults and
thus our present cultures are built. 
The traces are still there
in the native american and other 
matrilinear cultures that still
exist, its evident in the way
the European royalty inherit and in all the
archeological finds from the stoneage..

The Great Earth Mother
is my favourite motif which I constantly
repeat in all kinds of materials and techniques.
