My work is an exploration in function, form, texture, and color. Though ceramics can be a fragile material, my work is influenced by materials that, when structured in a specific manner, provide strength, such as yarn in a weaving or metal beams in a truss bridge. This can be seen in the delicate, yet strong woven pieces that I create by rolling coils of colored clay and weaving them in time-tested patterns proven to provide support. My pieces are intended for everyday use, but it is important to me that they reach outside the boundaries established by today’s culture of mass production.
