Description

My work focuses on abstract renderings of non-existent buildings. Playing with form, line, and color I build the framework of an enclosed space emerging from a body. The pieces come together to create the contour of form, able to be worn on the neck, hand, ears, or wrist. While not fully enclosed they leave room for the viewer to continue building and assembling a world around their bodies while also encouraging reflection on the environment that does surround us.
