My work explores the delicate and uneasy equilibrium between the organic world and human-made frameworks. Through kinetic sculpture, I place natural elements into states of precarious suspension. Anchored by a rigid, geometrically grooved core, these organic forms are forced into a delicate dance with structure.

There is a constant, physical tension at play in these pieces. The slight, continuous movement of the sculpture serves as a reminder that this balance is not permanent, but rather a fleeting, vulnerable moment caught between gravity, the natural world, and the systems we build to hold it all in place.

Operating from Whidbey Island, Washington, I create small moments that serve as an antidote to mass-produced disposability. Utilizing native fir, beach granite from the shores of Whidbey Island, hazelnut wood and industrial brass, these bricoler works are stripped bare.

An exploration of crude precision, where the aesthetic is defined not by polish, but by the visible expression of construction. Every chisel mark, wire bend, and balancing point is left exposed. These objects are not merely decorative; they are dialogues between the organic weight of the earth and the calculated tension of industrial design. They demand to be touched, observed, and understood, offering a tactile anchor in an increasingly intangible world.
