Artist Educator interested in using nature as an artistic medium that will decompose and decay over time. We live in a world full of objects so I am somewhat burdened by creating more objects.
We are born, we live, we die, we decay. Studying the process of natural materials is a replica of the human.
Make, create, recycle, reuse, art that will compost itself and decay to help the environment when finished.
