I create sculptures and site-specific installations that explore and rediscover the ancient and sacred relationship between the human spirit and the natural world. My artwork is inspired and sustained from the experience of beauty and truth, which I feel through intimate relating and while creating art and ritual with the natural world. An important element and often the initial stage in my creative process are conversations with trees and earth elements during excursions and adventures in nature. I use found and gathered earth materials from these excursions which inspire and initiate a meditative and sensual creative process of art making that opens into the timeless. Revealing and honing these found natural materials with a craft-based physicality and a devotion to the spirits in nature has become an embodied artistic and spiritual practice, one which opens gateways and passages to new experiences and possibilities.
