About Me and My Work
I believe that the contrast between thrown vessels and handbuilt elements can illustrate the dichotomy between the human experience and technological and industrial influence.
While with a conversation on the posthuman perspective with technology, it is hard to ignore the transhumanist idea of people directly integrated into the technology they have created. With my work I hope to explore not just how technology and industry will affect the world after we are gone, but also how it impacts and alters the human experience as it is now.
I am primarily a ceramic artist who has been working in the craft for around 8 years now, after my grandfather taught me pottery as I was going into a ceramics class in high school. Since then I have been mostly a traditional potter, making mostly functional ware and vessels. Until recently when I began exploring more sculptural work while pursuing a BA in Applied Design at San Diego State University.
(My about me is kind of outdate: my website is updated in my freetime between various assignments and themes covered in my sculptural work has somewhat changed since writing this. That’s to say, these concepts don’t entirely encapsulate my current work and this entire website as a whole is a work in progress.)
