I create tactile landscapes that echo the quiet intricacies of the natural world. My practice is rooted in close observation—moss on bark, the geometry of lichen, the shimmer of frost—and translated through fiber into layered, dimensional forms. Each piece begins with a question: What texture evokes this moment? What materials carry its memory?

I try to work with reclaimed and repurposed textiles—velvet, wool, satin, upholstery samples—alongside hand-dyed fibers and yarns. These materials are chosen not only for their tactile qualities but for their histories. I quilt, embroider, felt, and sculpt, often combining techniques in intuitive ways. My process is improvisational and iterative, guided by curiosity and a deep respect for the material’s voice.

The compositions emerge slowly, through layering and mark-making. I build microcosms—trees with bark and needles, clusters of leaves, solitary mushroom gardens—each stitched element a study in texture, form, and presence. I aim to evoke the feeling of stepping into a forest: the hush, the complexity, the sense of time unfolding.

My work invites touch and reflection. It asks viewers to slow down, notice, and remember. Through fiber, I explore the intersection of memory, ecology, and material storytelling—creating pieces that honor both the seen and the felt.
