“I am passionate about transforming unconventional materials into bold, wearable sculptures and statement jewelry. Gemstones peek through cracks in repurposed bullet casings, telling stories of transformation and defying expectations. Using a vibrant clash of clay, resin and metal, my sculptures inject pop art’s irreverence into bold political statements. I juxtapose iconic imagery with unexpected materials, like dripping lips destroying two bullet shells, to challenge viewers’ complacency and spark conversations. Through my art, I invite viewers to question traditional notions of beauty and value, to see secondhand materials as vessels for unexpected stories, and to embrace the transformative power of creativity.”
