                As we enter what some believe to be the Sixth Great Extinction, many creatures that
                currently roam the earth will become fossils. For every impressed relic, a niche will
                open for new life to grow and flourish. As a species, we must foster what cultivates
                and maintains life. A seed is an emblem of potential, continuation, and hope. It is
                concentrated energy, surging with life and vivacity.

                My sculptures are designed to elevate the humble little seed to something significant
                and substantial, extolling its status as bearer of the spark. The seed is represented by
                a shiny orb-like form. It is supported by rigid yet sinuous structures that prop, encase,
                or intertwine its body. Elements of ornament flirt with each passerby, enticing them to
                lean in and take notice of what is precious.
