Although supported and surrounded by nature, our culture and society have separated us from the "natural order." This perceived separation is the root of my work.

My work is created mostly in lampworked borosilicate glass, allowing me to range from delicate to massive. The contradictions of glass (enduring and ephemeral, micro and macro, ubiquitous and precious, weak and strong...) mirror much of what intrigues me about nature.

My newest work addresses image and perception. Disturbing the image, extracting something from it, adding to it.
