i have visited 1000 yards of remote beaches and shores hundreds of times to gather natural objects, plastics and eroded iron. By carefully sorting the debris, we fashion it into works of art that show the material as it is. The viewer is often surprised that this colorful stuff is the junk of our throwaway culture. And how it is intertwined with nature. Each bit, we find, opens into a wider story of contemporary life.

i combine my love of nature with my interest in material science to shape natures intertwining with plastic into art works full of intrigue.

The studied compositions i make, are intended to be visually enticing—free of polemic. i want the viewer to be captivated by the bright colors and enticed by the shapes and, upon closer inspection, see recognizable items that spark a personal connection and to invite people to become the anthropologists of the stuff of their lives.
