about the artist

what turns a forgotten object into art? the surprise, how it catches your eye, making you think, "could I (melt/break/ shred) this?" a flash of disruption in a daily routine to spark imagination & shake up thinking.

discarded objects fascinate me. I find joy in upcycling, giving new life to cast-offs, bringing love to unloved trinkets or trash. by giving these objects new stories, they become art.

follow along for stories of diving into the throwaway pile, finding unexpected beauty, and creating little bits of wonder, and maybe even invite one of these creations into your home or workspace.

embrace the unpredictable through these uncommon materials

as you invite these creations into your home, please tread lightly. each piece is a unique tapestry, woven from upcycled materials that dance to the rhythm of their own story. while I have lovingly smoothed known sharp edges and sealed every item to ensure its longevity, remember that these creations may evolve, just as we do, aging gracefully alongside you.

cherish these treasures, but keep them safely out of reach from curious little hands and playful paws.

may the beauty of the unusual inspire you, and may your connection with these objects deepen as they transform through time.
