Artist Bio

I transform simple, unassuming materials into sculptures that engage the senses and stir curiosity. Inspired by the Japanese embrace of imperfection, transience, and incompleteness, my work seeks authenticity in form and feeling.

The vibrant subtropical landscape I call home infuses my pieces with colour and vitality. I aim for clarity and directness, creating works that are tactile, approachable, and quietly uplifting.

In a complex world, I value simplicity. My sculptures invite interaction, offering moments of connection and lightness. Each piece reflects my own creative path and is made to bring moments of joy to those who experience it.
