CURRENT COLLECTION
Inspired by the flora and warm colors of Mexico, this series explores the dynamic between natural forms and adornment. This series began at La Gremial studio in Guanajuato, Mexico during a week with VAWAA. It has continued fueled by unique shapes found in nature, using sharp contrast to draw attention to forms that feel almost surreal.
