Through contrasting colours and painterly strokes, my work seeks to blur the boundary between the physical object and the representational image. I am interested in how intimacy and story can be embedded in everyday objects, and how these relationships might influence patterns of consumption in a time of ecological collapse.

My functional tableware draws inspiration from the vibrant chaos of early modernist and abstract painting, while also reflecting my unease with the contemporary visual landscape shaped by generative AI imagery. We are living in an age of illusion, where images proliferate rapidly and material presence is often flattened or displaced. This tension between the real and the unreal fuels my desire to simultaneously hold onto materiality and distort it.

While the forms of my pots are quiet, their surfaces are animated with brightly coloured, painterly lines. These gestures aim to bring a sense of “aliveness” to each object, inviting emotional engagement from the user.

Across my practice, there are unifying visual elements, but rarely no two pieces are identical. I favour iterative processes over reproductive ones, allowing intuition and material response to guide each object. In this way, my work resists uniformity and instead celebrates difference and presence.
