My work centers around things I find joy in, often plants, furniture designs, toys and other objects rife with diverse shape language. I find my intrigue in these objects is often separated from their cultural symbolism, and rather, I take inspiration from them in a design mindset. In this way, I can interact with my surroundings by translating a variety of references into visual explorations in style, color, composition, etc. My artistic output then encompasses the familiar and the fantastical as I nod to objects many would also find commonplace but variegated through my own lens.
