Artist Statement 

​

My work investigates nature as something continually transformed—by time, material processes, and human intervention. Through ceramics, painting, collage, cutting, and assemblage, I experiment with materials to create hybrid forms that move between the organic and the constructed.

The ocean, tropical ecosystems, accumulation, and environmental loss are recurring points of departure. Organic structures, intense color, repetition, and altered surfaces evoke both abundance and fragility, suggesting environments that are simultaneously growing, changing, and disappearing.

Material experimentation is central to my practice. By manipulating and combining raw materials by hand, I explore transformation as both a physical process and a reflection on our changing relationship with the natural world
