Dust to Dust

Monofilament and little bits of everything

Welcome to a whirling world of magnified dust. Chasing and observing waves of sunlit dust is my earliest memory of pure joy. The dust of butterfly scales, faraway volcanos, and bits of our skin swirl together in indistinguishable unity.

I am a sculptor and installation artist working primarily with found objects and fibers. My work explores duality, juxtaposition, and a sense of everything existing all at once through a lens of whimsical mystery.
