Lives and works in Fort Collins, CO
Most of my work centers around the female body as well as perceptions and psychology regarding the female body image. As a woman and a metalsmith I try to break the cycle of negativity that is inherent in our society through social commentary in objects as well as body adornment. I challenge myself and the viewer to reassess societally constructed paradigms of contemporary culture while also pursuing personal catharsis regarding my own body image.
