PILLARS contemplates the human condition through our material relationship with the planet. Working with found wood—organic forms shaped by ocean, wind, and time—I re-situate these remnants within human contexts, bridging the natural and the constructed.
This practice navigates the tension between what is formed by nature and what is altered through human touch. The found wood, once rooted and now displaced, becomes both artifact and collaborator—its surface inscribed with endurance, its presence tethered to cycles of transformation.
PILLARS investigates coexistence: the reciprocity between human intention and ecological process. Each work stands as a quiet monument to impermanence—bearing witness to how we inhabit, transform, and are ultimately reclaimed by the world that sustains us.
PILLARS installations are left in the world to exist autonomously—situated in forests, coastlines, and public spaces where they may be discovered by passersby. These encounters invite reflection: a moment of stillness in which the viewer considers their own place within the social and ecological systems that shape life on Earth. Through this act of placement and discovery, PILLARS extends beyond the studio, becoming a living dialogue on sustainability, presence, and our shared responsibility to the planet.
