9’6″ Custom Entryway Table
This is a custom entryway table I did for a coop building in Brooklyn. They already had the mirror and wanted something to match the mirror and fit well in the space. I worked with the client from the coop board on the design. Because the top surface is quartz (i.e. heavy) I decided to [...]

Dust/Snow Globe Series coming soon!
This is the first in a series of homemade snow globes. Inspired by the history of the survivors of the Dust Bowl, there is a small prairie house (made out of Sculpty clay) inside an upside down canning jar that is full of water and fine red sand.

This series plays with the tension between romantic rural imagery and the harsh reality of surviving in extreme environments. I’m excited to announce that I have almost completed the first round of this series– so stay tuned for images of more snow/dust globes!
