I love to synthesize reclaimed and found materials with lore and nature to create a light…. hopefully resulting in an illuminating epiphany.

I love to create lights. I find old lamps and chandeliers along with other interesting materials, all reclaimed from thrift stores or found in nature or friends' cast-aways, and spend a little time with them. Once I've connected with a vision, I rewire/restore the lamp's functionality and then strip it down then rebuild it with textiles, glass, wire and crystals to create a new Light. It is God-led and a very intentional metaphor for humanity's current accelerated evolution.
