Artist Statement

My work is rooted in the exploration of both organic and structured materials. The juxtaposition of these components allows me to strike a delicate balance between rigidity and fluidity. In a world filled with easily consumable goods, I create pieces that honor the handicraft of generations past and bring these traditions to a new generation.

 

 

I love helping people find the perfect piece to complete their home. If you need some help or would like to discuss a commissioned piece, please email hello@shopsevensixteen.com
