Following is a bit about the new collection, in the artist's own words: ⁠
⁠
"This collection is an ode to wind; how it animates stillness, how it shifts objects to dance in light and shadow, fuels flames, and how it softly brushes against one’s skin. This essence is illustrated through form, texture, and the play of light. I chose an earthy red clay exterior with a soft, brushed texture to contrast with the matte white interior to radiate warm light from within the forms.⁠
⁠
I hand-build each piece using clay mined in Southern California. Hand-building is a process that allows me to carefully respond to how light moves across the surface and within the form. For this collection, I sculpted the custom hardware in wax, then cast it using the lost-wax process and finished it by layering patinas before assembly.⁠
⁠
The candle holders for me, are like gesture drawings in space. I roll out ribbons and create loose patterns around a post. It’s a meditative practice like drawing or dancing."⁠
