Cream of the crop on diaplay for my MA 2nd Year Review last weekend! Here's what I've been getting up to in the studio for the past year and a half, all in one place--was cool to see it in tandem with all my fellow 2nd year's installations in the VAB.
.
Feels good to check this milestone off my to-do list because I've been living the consequences of saying yes to too many things for the past few months, but it's a good problem to have. Finally seeing the light at the end of the deadline tunnel, for now!

Peristalsis (5.9.2025)
.
Stills from my contribution to the S&I Open House Salon. Sculpture Workshop was an absolute blast this semester, what a great crew! Breaking into live performance and exploring interactivity in a variety of contexts with my latest ceramic forms.

Lick and Stick, 2026

"Pluck a single hair from your body. Lick a vertical surface in the room or on your body and stick your hair to it. Wait and watch until the saliva dries or the hair falls."

Thank you for matching my freak, VAB 💈👅💦

Beyond honored to have my piece 'Paired Pleasure?' included in the National Juried Student Exhibition @nceca this year, among so many other talented emerging voices in the field. What a beautiful space at the College for Creative Studies for the thoughtful and poignant curation of Eva Kwong and Garry Garrido Schneider to coalesce.
.
Thank you to everyone who attended, asked questions, and engaged with the work this week! Plus, an extra special shout out to my community of friends and mentors @uiowaceramics for all the love and support that has allowed this body of work to flourish 💛

10.24.2025 《Skin Hunger Activation No.1》
.
This piece was created in response to Meiko Shiomi's Shadow Piece (1963) score as a part of a brilliant group show curated by @pants.gif and @earthd.curated , currently on view @northernclaycenter . So honored to show this artifact alongside the other talented artists who were asked to create their own interpretations and engage with the Fluxus movement through clay.
.
There's a virtual tour available and we'll be having a virtual chat open to the public 1/28 6pm (that's tomorrow!!). Join us if you can. Link is on NCC's website or DM me for it!! ✨️

Opening image is my favorite, unintentional collab between me and @josuebessiake ! Positioning in the gallery alludes to and invites touch exactly as I hope for the work in this exhibition 💙
