About the Work

I create sculpture and mixed-media works using salvaged steel, foraged pigments, handmade paper, and charcoal, giving new life to materials often overlooked.

This process is at the heart of my practice, shaping work meant to be felt, handled, and experienced, rather than merely observed.
