Statement

In my work, I am focussed on the act of making and engaging with materials which serve as a form of therapy. My intention is to use craft as a means of self-discovery, introspection and healing. My work is centered around themes of reflection, hyper-optimism, resilience and transformation. I My hope is to make human connections through my work. I work with a  a range of materials including clay, metal, wood and plastics where I enjoy manipulating materials to create desired forms. In the past year, Milan I have worked extensively with bent wood laminations exploring curves and bent forms which has become central to my design language.
