Portfolio
I am an artist based in Lancaster making heavy ceramic artifacts for a world where sometimes we feel like we are floating away.
As a neurodivergent maker, I design raw sculptures, daily vessels, and wearable anchors to act as physical tethers—bringing a quiet, somatic weight to loud spaces and routines. To read the full story of my studio practice, please choose Bio & Artist Statement in the menu above.
Birthed by fire
A collection reflecting a period of adaptation and rediscovery. Healing from a hospital stay and faced with the unexpected limitations of 2020, I embraced pit firing, finding freedom in its unpredictable beauty. These pieces embody a surrender to the process, a celebration of the unique marks of fire and smoke.
