Artist Statement
I create wall hangings using wood, clay, leather, mirrors, and recycled materials. My work explores the intersection of texture, geometry, and sustainability, drawing inspiration from Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern design.
I work primarily with foraged and reclaimed materials—each with its own history, imperfections, and character. These elements guide my process, resulting in pieces that are both structured and organic, clean-lined yet layered with story.
Visitors to my studio will experience the full material arc: from raw fragments to finished works that honor the past while creating space for new narrative
