I use long ceramic coils to "weave" or "knit" sculptural forms, bridging ancient ceramic traditions with the aesthetics of feminine craft. Coiling becomes a meditative process—one that explores form through rhythm, repetition, and time.

​

Many of my sculptures begin as vessels, a form that metaphorically evokes the human body. As I work, these vessels evolve into abstract meditations on feminine embodiment. Through this transformation, I seek to develop a visual language that expresses women’s lived experiences.
