Ceramics & Pottery
I use traditional craft skills to make art objects and everyday beauty. Drawing on observation from the natural world and deep respect for old processes and tools, I make slow work in small quantities. I challenge the notion that old methods are inferior to modern ones, instead celebrating the time-honored skills and processes that connect us to beauty and bring it into our homes.
