Soil, Rock, Wool, Water; Time, Movement, Intention, Reverence

My art practice is rooted in reverence for, and a collaborative relationship with, wilderness. I work with stone, soil, water and other Earth-based materials —materials that hold stories far older than our own— to create visual narratives that explore themes of Time, Memory, and Transformation.

I create the conditions, and the materials guide the process through their textures, densities, and natural properties. Some are coarse and resistant, others fine as dust; some darken when wet, others bloom into unexpected tones. It is a conversation, and the Earth insists on its own vocabulary.

In all my work, water becomes the agent of change, an active partner that transforms loose, raw material into a unified surface. These natural elements shape not only the physical form of my work, but also its conceptual grounding. These processes echo natural cycles of compression, growth, and emergence. The tactile, elemental quality invites presence, reminding us of our own animal bodies and the ways we are woven into the living world.

By working with materials in their raw, elemental form, I aim to foster a renewed sense of relationship between humans and the Earth. My work invites viewers to be present, to feel the weight and beauty of what the Earth offers, and to remember that we are not separate from it.
