Every day I breathe new life and alchemy. I actively explore areas of the unknown, cultivate community, and consistently rediscover myself.

I am primarily a 3-D artist who explores quantum mechanics with traditional material as a spiritual practice. The most personal medium I work in is ceramics, but I also have foundational practices in Metalsmithing and Woodworking. In my process of ceramic hand building I extrude coils to then build structures in order to embody energetic states I am emotionally processing. Woodworking allows me to bring in natual medicine into sterilized spaces, and Metalsmithing allows me to create amulets.
Where do you find inspiration?Inherently, inspiration comes from the people closest to me. This manifests in sharing spaces and spontaneous connection. Apart from that, my work is a direct response to my spiritual practice. My meditation, dreaming and intuition aid me in channeling forms to reality. This dedication gives me resilience to keep building emotional character through my work. Another inspiration of mine is EDM. In this sound community I find fun-loving vibrancy, unwavering connection and relentless creativity.
What would you do with $25,000?With this money I would continue to support myself and artistic practice. This could include buying materials/tools, renting studio spaces and traveling to other places in order to network and get my art further in the world. It would be great to use the money for residencies and or workshops to gain skills that I currently do not possess. It could also help me relocate to a new city if I choose to pursue an artist residency program.
