How I “Zero Waste”

This art was born from a combination of my deep loathing of textile and plastic industry pre AND post consumer waste, and my enormous gratitude and admiration of all I’ve gotten to experience observing underwater reefs around the world

I am so proud that 90% of my supplies are carefully sourced from “dead stock” materials… discontinued fiber and textile runs, repurposed clothing, and forgotten back-of-the-closet stashes from other artists that get donated to me.

The result is these “Coralscapes”. Reef inspired structures and shapes that you can touch without damaging something living. I sculpt organic and hyperbolic shapes that grow into something almost resembling our Creators’ genius.

Every Purchase helps protect and heal Florida Reefs

We work with several non-profit organizations around the state of Florida by donating 10% of all sales.
