“My aim is to embrace beauty and chaos in the structured landscape of the domestic every day. Exploring spontaneous form and intuitive construction by rhythmically connecting and growing each piece I find comfort in a liminal position between design art and craft. Offering a balance of metaphor, function, and process in pursuit of artful expressions in design could be an opportunity to celebrate new perspectives in design”.
