process
Wandering out into the wild to gather materials is an integral part of her process.
Sustainable & regenerative practices are the foundation.
Botanical pieces are designed around what’s currently in season & can be locally wild foraged from overgrown landscapes.
Everything is wild foraged and locally purchased from flower farmers.
Wood, metal, twine and natural materials are used in place of plastic.
Everything is reused and recycled.
