BUILD ME UP
Building Sculptures Out Of Ceramics & Wood.
RIGHT WHERE I WANT YOU / 2024/ Ceramic, Mixed Media/ 9" X 13"/ Materials: high-fire ceramic, snowflake crackle glaze, and welded steel. I wanted to capture the feeling of heartbreak and how love can be destructive if wielded with malice and a need to control another.
DYSTOPIA / 2022/ Ceramic, Mixed Media, Self-Portrait/ 14" x 8"/ Materials: Clay, gold leaf, paint, camera lens, gears, watch parts. When given the task of creating a self-portrait, I decided to take the approach of portraying a dystopian future self with steampunk elements.
GARY / 2024/ Ceramic/ 14" x 37"/ Materials: High-fire ceramic and glaze. While researching endangered animals, I came across the Ramshorn Snail and decided to bring it to life.
CREATURE TOTEM / 2024/ Mixed media/ 36" x 7"/ Materials: high fire clay, gear, steel plate and rod. The base and pole are created using scrap metal welded together and the faces and separators are thrown and hand-built ceramics.
HUE / 2021/ Mixed Media/ 22" X 13"/ Materials: wood, finials, finials, knobs, bowl, printer's block. My love for the natural hues found in wood inspired me to create these two assemblages from random scrap I had in my studio.
BOWL ME OVER / 2021/ Mixed Media/ 18" x 9"/ Materials: Finial, bowl, printers block, handle, piano parts, bracelet, and wood. My love for the natural hues found in wood inspired me to create these two assemblages from random scrap I had in my studio.
