As an artist, I view my role as an act of service, continually exploring how my work can best support others. My ceramic vessels serve as vehicles for investigating human connection and highlighting the disconnection prevalent in contemporary America. I am deeply concerned about the side effects of corporate capitalism, such as dehumanization and isolation, which arise from viewing individuals as disposable commodities.

Central to my practice is an exploration of community, expressed through tactile mark-making. By working with clay and engaging in collaborative public participation, I emphasize the physicality of the hand, and the personal touch embedded in each piece. This approach allows my work to become an archive of the uniqueness and evidence of the human hand.

These vessels can be used functionally or displayed in installations, conveying moments of sharing and contemplation. In this way, the vessel serves as both a literal and metaphorical object of unity.
