Artist Statement

My work explores how environments and bodies respond to pressure, displacement, and change. Working primarily in ceramics but not limited to it, I create sculptural forms and installations that reference eroded landscapes, speculative terrain, and fragments of infrastructure. I am interested in how land holds memory and how material can embody endurance.

Clay allows me to record labor, gravity, and fracture, while glass introduces light, fragility, and temporality. The tension between these materials mirrors broader themes within my practice, including colonial histories, migration, urban expansion, and speculative futures. I approach material as inseparable from land and lived experience.

My installations are designed to be physically navigated. Scale plays a critical role, inviting viewers to move around openings, surfaces, and structural weight. Through these environments, I aim to create contemplative spaces that ask how we persist within unstable systems and how adaptation can become a form of resilience rather than collapse.
