A selection of early works exploring form, memory, connection, and the beginnings of a material language.
Before Sculpting Emotions had a name, there were questions—held in clay, surface, and object. These works trace an early exploration of how experience can be shaped, contained, and expressed through form.
Across sculpture, vessel, and installation, themes of memory, connection, vulnerability, and resilience begin to emerge—sometimes quietly, sometimes more directly—each piece part of a process of learning to listen, respond, and create.
These works remain as markers of where the journey began—echoes that continue to inform and shape the work today.Origins & Echoes
