I work with clay because it carries everything - weight, memory, the record of its own becoming. And still it yields. My practice centers on multi-component sculptural assembles. These sculptures are an inquiry into how we come apart and what we become in the reassembling. Exploring how meaning accumulates, how selves are layered, and how loss and transformation leave their shape in form. Each arrangement is but one of infinite permutations, held together against its own impermanence.

I first put my hands in clay at a ceramics class at the art barge. A place where the light, water, and sand all conspire to create an ever changing composition of the natural beauty of the east end.
