Owl
This piece was part of my Master’s thesis exhibition entitled “How Can We Know Aliens? We Can’t Even Know Rabbits.” The blasted and rusted surface treatments on the form combined with an iconic and symbolic form are meant to link the viewer to both the deep past that we share with animals and the uncertain […]

This ceramic sculpture echoes the deep past by creating a hole that appears to be knocked into the center of the form, echoing the way shards are formed in the aging process. The rabbit in this work is meant to draw attention to the emptiness of a form that is an important marker for the […]

Loss and rebirth are evoked in this singular work, both through the linkages of the ears decorated with leaves, and the hole opened up in the form, which is simultaneously opening and […]
The Moon
In both its physical manifestation and its presence in myth and folklore, the moon is an important touchstone in my thinking and practice, and this work describes some of the moon’s phases in a single ceramic sculpture.

At the same time, I am interested in interrupting that typical response to a common animal like the rabbit to create tension in the audience, to make the encounter a little strange. I believe it is important to create objects […]
Void
I often make animals that have both personal and cultural significance in my work. In this piece, I use the iconic nature of the bull, with a large void in the open mouth, to draw attention to our insatiable appetite for beef, and the way that an iconic animal becomes a site for exploring humor […]
