Transforming plastic and other consumer waste into Art.
Jewelry
Each piece of Plastic and Pearls jewelry is one-of-a-kind, incorporating found plastic and other consumer debris- transforming what others discard into something unexpected and wearable.
Fiber
My fiber work combines traditional textile techniques with unconventional materials, transforming single-use plastics, packaging and fabric scraps through slow, deliberate stitching.
Assemblage & Collage
Discarded materials are embedded in resin to create one-of-a-kind functional trays that preserve what might otherwise be thrown away.
Photography
My photographs reflect two sides of the world I encounter while walking— what we discard and what we hope to preserve.
Some images begin with found objects and debris, gathered and arranged into compositions that give overlooked materials new context. Others celebrate the beauty I encounter along the way.
Trashtrays
Discarded materials are embedded in resin to create one-of-a-kind functional trays that preserve what might otherwise be thrown away.
Ceramics
Hand-built ceramics pair simple forms with complex surfaces, exploring texture, color and surface design.
