I believe in cheap art and the power of salvage.
My work is rooted in the landfill and trash. My creative practice is built on two artist residencies in the waste stream. I reclaim what has been discarded to create what will be cherished. By transforming literal trash into hand-bound artifacts, I give forgotten archives a second life.

Physical Connection

My practice is rooted in tactile, face-to-face experiences. I believe art should facilitate genuine connection, which is why I often give away earrings to those who truly connect with a particular story. You can find me at markets throughout the Upstate sharing these moments and my latest work.

Retail & Collaborations

I am always open to discussing new partnerships with retailers who value slow-craft and intentional salvage! A digital catalog of current wholesale offerings is available for independent bookstores and other vendors upon request.

The Intentional Stitch

Every miniature is hand-sewn and takes several days to complete. My process involves four different types of glue and a level of focus that turns bookbinding into a meditative act of preservation. This slow, deliberate construction ensures that every 1-inch edition is as durable and functional as their larger counterparts.
