About
My process begins in living, making a living, and figuring out how to live. I’m a multi-media artist focused on DIY, repurposing materials, and alternative crafting. My ideas come from normal places and my materials come from places even more normal. Yet, I am propelled by the need to uncover the hidden magick in the world. Through invention, craft, and imagination, I explore how obsolete materials can be converted into functional futures, where plastic bags become hats and records become backpacks -- shining possibility and opportunity on objects otherwise considered mundane.
