Crafted from porcelain, jute, raffia, sand, and wood, this body of work embodied a sense of ritual and reverence, evoking ceremonial and totemic forms. Weaving traditions—long used as a means of storytelling across cultures—were both honored and reinterpreted through layered embellishments and textural interplay. A quiet theatricality emerged, with many pieces suggesting masks or relics, while remaining deeply rooted in the raw, organic integrity of their materials.
I presented this work in a solo exhibition at Marrow Gallery in San Francisco, as well as a traveling exhibition throughout the US over the course of five years.
