In my work, the act of making is not a means to an end, but the core of the art itself. My practice is rooted in the "seed" of an idea, evolving through a dynamic, iterative process where composition, color, and texture must achieve a precise balance to form a cohesive whole. Working in series allows me to explore these ideas deeply, treating each piece as a step in a broader evolution of form and construction.

I am captivated by the elemental power of three-dimensional geometric shapes. Their simplicity and precise edges provide a framework for repeatable, visual compositions that bridge the gap between traditional craft and structural fabrication. Utilizing a hybrid of wheel-thrown and slab-built techniques, I create vessels that function as more than mere containers; they are stages for movement and interaction.

The interiors of these large-scale works serve as a platform where the "contents" become the most powerful visual element. Here, shapes penetrate or transition through the containing walls, challenging the boundary between interior and exterior space. Finished with low-fired glazes and fired in electric kilns, these objects celebrate the tactile pleasure of construction and the profound relationship between a structure and what it holds.
