My art practice is rooted in the experience of being human and our relationship to the body, the natural world, transformation, and the stories we carry. My work has evolved alongside my own life, becoming a way to explore rupture and repair, vulnerability and resilience, and the ongoing process of restoring the spirit.

​

I work across sculpture and installation using materials that carry their own histories and stories, including bone, latex, steel, wood, hair, ash, copper, paper, and the human form. I am drawn to the tension between materials that feel fragile and those that feel enduring, between what has been discarded and what can be transformed. Animal bones, body casts, organic materials, and fabricated steel become vessels through which I can explore both physical and emotional experience.

​

The body has remained an important presence throughout my practice. In Soul Skins, I collaborate with women to create body casts that become surfaces for personal narratives, allowing internal experiences to take physical form. In Ship Wrecked, animal bones are transformed into ship-like sculptures that speak to the experience of becoming shipwrecked in one’s life and the journey of repairing the spirit and cleansing the heart.

Increasingly, I am interested in creating work that invites participation and exchange. I want the viewer to become more than an observer—to encounter something that asks them to turn inward, engage their intuition, and bring their own experiences and questions to the work.

​

At the center of my practice is a desire to tell stories; personal stories, ancestral stories, and stories that connect us to the natural and spiritual worlds. I make art as a way of giving form to experiences that can be difficult to name.

Ultimately, I return to a simple question: How can I create art that gives people a chance to pause, reflect, and feel?
