My work is a result of universal coping mechanisms manifested during times of humility, humor, trauma, and contradiction. Overindulgence is a common theme in my work expressed with junk foods and over-the-top embellishments. I often utilize the “more is more” approach with colorful sprinkles, clusters of blooming flowers, various meats, or whatever makes sense for a particular piece. With my ceramic work I aim to celebrate the mundane. Whether that be through a relatable mug, a highly decorative cake-stand, or an oddly adorable sculpture, I hope to elevate and bring joy to the everyday experience.
