My work explores a shifting line between chaos, order, abstraction and representation. I use disparate found objects and symbols to create new worlds — miniature landscapes, reliquaries, and intimate environments — where meaning is highly personal and scale is often ambiguous.

With my small sculpture, monoprint, and collage, I often repurpose elements from one piece for use in another, just as I repurpose objects found at the ocean, in the garden, or at the hardware store and combine them into something untried. I find this reinvention and renewal to be challenging, full of hope, and endlessly satisfying.

The repeating elements in my work — the ocean, birds, houses, pears, and maps — have resonated for me since childhood. I associate them all with something both familiar and mysterious — another shifting line that I trust will never be completely resolved.
