I have always been fascinated by the natural world by how it can feel very familiar but also very foreign to us. The almost alien anatomy of insects and seemingly infinite forms of flora feel as though they should be part of another realm not overlooked as a part of our day to day lives. My work brings these creatures and habitats into the forefront. Using traditional hand fabrication techniques I transform sheet metal wire and blocks of wax into pieces that bring these menageries to life in silver and high carat gold.
