Artist Statement:

My ceramic vessels and sculptures look for the wiggle room in between categories relating to the fields of design, sculpture, and painting. The form of the clay coil is a central essential shape in my work which is reproduced throughout non-human nature. The coil or tube is also all around and within us. They are our veins that connect our organs, the pipes in our homes, and the wires that carry our energy, information and waste. Tubes connect one thing to another. 

My shapes spring from molds I take of simple forms which I use as a jumping off point for relentlessly exploring the many possible expressions of the shapes. Testing for flexibility of myself and my material, I create vessels which respond to my present moment and express my individual and collective humanity. I take apart the conventional components of the vessel and re-compose to question what it all boils down to, and how something grows from there.
