Sparks fly when I encounter vibrant fragments of waste, materials often overlooked by others. As a scavenger, I am drawn to the colors and forms of discarded objects in junkyards and the landscapes I inhabit, collecting shards to build an evolving library of fragments. Within a playful framework rooted in ceramic processes, I create sculptural micro-landscapes that reimagine detritus and reveal the wonder and value within the “junk” we cohabitate with.

Amid the ecological pressures of the Anthropocene, my work offers alternative ways of seeing waste, rehabilitating junk through art and aesthetics grounded in wonder, care, and hope. In opposition to a fast, disposable culture, my process is intentionally slow—from foraging to construction—deepening my attention to the decay, beauty, and toxicity surrounding us. Remnants of Future Landscapes uses play as both a visual tool and a way of being, imagining future terrains while engaging with the remnants of our past.
