Artist Statement
I am fascinated by the idea that if the ocean were to sweep away my home and all its belongings, everything would naturally return to the earth—paper would dissolve, wood would decompose, and metal would begin to rust. This sense of harmony with nature, where all materials originate from and eventually return to the earth, deeply influences my artistic practice. I strive to create art with minimal environmental impact, using found and organic materials that reflect the earth’s ability to provide and reclaim.
My passion lies in crafting my mediums from scratch and sourcing ingredients directly from nature. Whether it’s clay dug from a riverbed, wood burnt to make charcoal, or ink made from wild berries, my process begins long before the artwork takes shape. Committed to sustainable practices, I ensure that every piece I create remains in balance with the environment, leaving little to no carbon footprint. This approach allows me to honor nature while embedding a sense of organic authenticity in my work.
Welding plays a significant role in my sculptures, as I often transform scrap metal into pieces that embody nature’s power to repurpose and renew. Just as wood can be burnt to make charcoal, welding lets me reshape forgotten materials into new forms, breathing life into what was once discarded. By melting, shaping, and layering metals, I capture the balance between strength and fragility, echoing nature’s cycles of destruction and renewal. Each piece invites viewers to reflect on their role in these cycles and encourages a deeper connection to the natural world.
