EVERYTHING NOT SAVED WILL BE LOST
My sculptures are composed through slow accumulation—thousands of small parts held in tension, tracing a process of continual becoming. Working primarily with wood and photography, I construct open, latticed forms that carry both presence and absence, grief and repair. These porous structures speak to the instability of memory, the fragmentation of the natural world, and the blur between handmade and artificial systems. I’m drawn to the spaces between—what lingers, what slips, what’s held. Weaving serves not only as a method, but as a way of thinking: a logic of interdependence, containment, and preservation. Through gestures of repetition and mending, the work resists resolution and instead welcomes the imperfect, the precarious, and the intimate. everything not saved will be lost becomes both a warning and a meditation—one that speaks to the inevitability of loss and the quiet magic of holding things together, piece by piece, even as they threaten to fall apart.
