Artist Statement

Every living being has been millenia in the making. From ancestors whose stories we know to the microbes that we all evolved from, a lot had to happen for me to be here now making things with clay. My work exists as an exploration of naturally occurring images and textures, most recently taking inspiration from those microscopic ancestors, and their modern day equivalents in the hope of better understanding my own place in existence. I use natural elements such as rocks, shells, bark, as well as specialized texturing tools to create variation on the surface of my pieces, incorporating natural elements into the physical body of my work creating unique yet familiar surfaces.
