About
My practice observes how materials hold and carry memory across different speeds of time and distinct environments—whether familiar or foreign. I view materials as vessels: holding air bubbles, textures of places, and colors from origins.
I work across multiple mediums including natural pigments, glass, beeswax, starch-based bioplastics, and alternative photography. My bioplastic sculptures are created from local grains and starches, embodying decaying and durational time while carrying personal and geographical stories in their very chemistry.
My experimental photography captures momentary, light-speed time, often layering beeswax onto images to create tactile membranes. Glass work explores cyclical and frozen time through trapped air bubbles—archives of breath at the moment of making.
Paintings function as earth and sea maps using extracted or collected pigments combined with natural red algae binders. I approach my studio practice as a form of cooking, where I blend historical binders and local ingredients to create material memory—a testimony to the stories we hold, release, and transform.
