Untitled, 2026
Steel, wood
Another exploration into my body of work “The Seed”, where I am considering not only how technology tries to mimic life, but on a larger scale the power struggle between humanity and the environment it sprang from. In this work we see a machine attempting to mimic a dead tree while wearing the very skin of the thing it’s trying to mimic. This masquerade is a common theme through my work and is one that will likely continue. This piece isn’t quite finished; the bark “skin” will@be cast in iron at a later date. As always thanks to @oufinearts for the continuing support.
The Seed: Explorations 1, 2025
Cast iron, bronze
I have many thoughts behind this series, but I’m saving those for later. For now have a good laugh in that I went through all the work to cast this form in iron, only to turn around and patina it to make it look like regular bark again. Also, a bronze base for an iron sculpture? Why not! @icccia_org #castironart #castiron @oufinearts
“My god, It’s a Lot”, 2025
Cast aluminum, cables, ceramic tile
“My god, It’s a Lot” draws inspiration from the song “Some Type of Skin” by Aurora, which speaks to the need to construct a protective layer just to navigate the world.
In this sculpture, a machine pulls on human skin as if putting on a sock—a visual metaphor for the daily experience of neurodivergent individuals living in a world built for neurotypical expectations.
For those with ADHD, autism, and other forms of neurodivergence, even simple social interactions can feel overwhelming or alienating. In an effort to be understood—or at least to fit in—we build façades of “normalcy” that are not natural to us.
This constant effort to perform can fray and exhaust us, much like the tangled, worn wires that make up the core of this figure. Beneath the appearance of fitting in, the strain remains.
Thank you @auroramusic for making music that resonates and moves so many people, I am grateful for it.

A few months ago on a trip to LA I dropped into a small record store only to see this gem on the wall behind the register. Had to take it home, no question. Released to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Gundam, Sunrise took preorders for this two record vinyl album and pressed only those preorders, which classifies it as made to order. There’s a lot of rare Gundam merch out there and it’s exciting to know I have this piece. #gundam #mobilesuitgundam #vinyl #indyrecordshop
Congratulations to my graduate cohort for us making it through our midway presentations, onward to thesis! @marinleiru , @maddiemgandy , @ab.ferg , and @cierra.roberts.art are phenomenal artists and it’s a pleasure to be in a group and show work with them. Enjoy this video of our gallery setup of some of our work! As always, thanks to @oufinearts for providing us with the space and environment to make this work in.
It was a great day for critiques at @oufinearts where @cierra.roberts.art and I got to show some work to the faculty. It’s great to be surrounded by awesome artists!
Implausible Fiction, 2026
Plaster, Acrylic
*Salvaged from the exterior of the now defunct Artificial Intelligence Equality Foundation Center in 21XX prior to the centers demolition*
Many of my generation grew up with the idea that the future would look a certain way; flying skateboards, robots that walked and talked like us, technology that improved our lives. Now in a current period where (ro)bots are instead programs that sway public opinion and manipulate governments, it makes the fictions we thought were the future quite implausible.
As always thanks to @oufinearts for providing the space to explore these topics
