I am interested in the impression of fleeting moments through objects, emotions, time, and the contexts that may influence those experiences.
The inbetweenness of things.
I use clay as a temporal material to record the quiet moments and lived experience, the space between and the connections that bridge them together. I am drawn to the presence of what once was there, the fragility of a moment and what we choose to hold onto and release.
