The natural phenomena of the earth, which are normal and usually unnoticed, are the intriguing, tiny objects found when gazing down.
My fascination with the ground and the things we stomp over in our everyday lives has extended into my work.
I create a new realm for these objects in order to transform society’s generalization of them into precious and obvious matter.
I combine elements and ideas of nature to create wearable objects.
