Materials like glass, ceramics, and metal, allow me to work directly with the elements of earth, fire, water, air, and aether (spirit). Glass is mesmerizing and magical, both liquid and solid at once, an amorphous material that can be manipulated with heat, gravity and breath. The fragility and transparency of glass gives it an ethereal quality that is unmatched by any other material.  As ancient as human civilization, I find clay to be meditative, malleable, and forgivable. It has taught me patience in the process, it cannot be rushed or it fails. Metal is elemental, strong, and conducts energy.  With the use of heat and force, it allows me to forge structures that will create a lasting support and energetic connection for the framework of my artistic practice. Working with glass is hot and fast, clay is slow and cool, and metal overlaps both.  I dance between them in order to see my visions come to reality.

Making mixed media sculpture, my inspiration comes from lived experiences and my spiritual connection with nature.  Pre-colonial pagan motifs including ancient symbolism, alchemy, sacred geometry, and the Divine Feminine, weave throughout my art as I seek to deconstruct religious patriarchal rule.  My work features threads of existential interconnectivity between humans and the natural world, our place within it, and our responsibility for it.  As human technology advances, consciousness and connection are becoming lost.  Only a reconnection with nature can heal humanity.
