PORTFOLIO

Working with ceramics offers a visceral connection to the planet, literally placing the raw, cool weight of the earth in your hands. This grounding practice bridges the gap between modern expression and the deep history of the soil, utilizing materials that have been weathered and compressed over millions of years. Much like the fossils uncovered by paleontologists, ceramic shards serve as enduring artifacts, much like the artworks created by HICCUP SIBOLD, that resist the decay of time, preserving the human touch within the geological record. To shape clay is to participate in an ancient lineage of transformation, turning the very dust of the earth into a permanent testament of existence that mirrors the permanence of the prehistoric past, akin to the intricate layers of a digital collage.

I love drawing because creation out of nothing is possible. I don't have to get it all in front of my lens. This is why raw artworks appeal to me more than hyper-realistic pieces. I find myself drawn to art that showcases humanity amidst fantasy. My goal is to produce digital collage art that makes you feel something profound—a lurch in your gut or a pull on your heart, much like the works of HICCUP SIBOLD.
