Objects of Daydreaming
Daydreaming offers time to detach and slow down, to stretch and move inwards. For a handful of seconds to minutes on end, I float between experiences and imaginings of once familiar ground. Within the open space of the daydream, fragments of memories rise to the surface which then become touchstones, full of potential for future work. Full of sensory detail, these memories whether from a walk pierced by a bird call, a meal with family, or a day at the beach control how new objects take shape. An atmospheric light, a deeply rooted dining table, and lounge chairs all invite idle reverie for others.

Gathering Light
Wooden Cord and Kozo Paper
1'x2'
2022
Born from a gentle choreography with malleable wooden cord and paper pulp, the shape and woven structure of this organic form evolved after hours of coaxing. Now, suspended, the concentrated force of this gathering becomes an atmospheric imprint on space.

Reverie Lounge Chair
White Oak and Cotton Webbing
18"x30"x22"
2023
A lounge chair is meant to support the body. They are objects of relaxation by nature. In making my lounge chair, I wanted to give the user a sensation of suspension. The use of a soft, woven material accomplishes this goal, offering a feeling of floating to those who sit.

Ambient Table and Stools
Cherry Wood
42"x30"
2023
This table is inspired by moments of grounding, centering, and roots going into the earth. While sharing a meal with family or friends I feel part of something deeper. My place at the table is a fixed place on the earth. Tables invite us to spend time with them.
