My priorities as an artist are exploring liberty, intimate feelings, the magic of the universe, connections, and queer beauty using favored soft colors and varied physical materials.
​
I work across mediums but am mainly focused on paper and ceramic sculpture as well as painting on paper. I love to work with recycled materials because they have an unknown history since before our encounter. I’m interested in the transformation of material, reflecting the transformation of beings and ideas.
​
I love to bike and explore, collecting discarded materials to be a part of my cache. I like to carefully notice things like moss growing on buildings, piles of trash, pigeons bathing in puddles, people interacting with one another. Time in nature is an important part of my process: I wander mindfully, allowing my attention to be pulled intuitively, noticing with all my senses, being open and alert.
​
I’m passionate about creating welcoming and inclusive environments for play, exploration, expression, creation, and sharing, acting as a guide and teacher.
​
I am a butterfly, flying from idea to idea and so often working on multiple projects at a time. I am a raccoon, rifling through trash to find treasures. I am a tree, growing towards the light and receiving aid from the root systems around me, grounded in the earth. I am a housecat, sleeping curled in a square of sunshine.

I grew up in Maryland, USA, and now I live in Paris, France.
