My artwork is inspired by the beauty of the natural world, especially the intricate patterns of landscapes and the curiosity that nature evokes. I create pieces that honor and reflect the harmony between humans and nature. I am intentional in choosing materials that are responsibly sourced, whether mined, collected, or purchased. Using borosilicate glass, silver, and gold, I bring my visions to life. Each piece of artwork is hand-fabricated, reflecting meticulous craftsmanship and celebrating the beauty of nature. I strive to ensure that every detail embodies my passion and tells a unique story. Glass, in particular, allows me to capture the vibrant colors of the sea, sky, flora, and fauna, giving me the freedom to explore the gradients and textures found in nature.

My work is driven by curiosity and a desire to uncover the world’s hidden wonders. Through my art, I aim to inspire others to be more conscious of the environment and the delicate balance we share with it. By highlighting environmental issues, I hope to spark reflection, inviting viewers to connect my creations with their own personal memories or adventures, and ultimately, to find a piece that resonates with them on a deeper level.
