“I am an artist who’s core philosophy is using something old to create something new. All pieces are constructed individually and not mass produced, each with thought as to placement and color scheme. Working through high school at Goodwill and then in college for RSVP Gallery I was able to connect the dots between a sustainable approach to garment production with constructing and designing in a high end context. It is important that all things remain in their natural state while continuing to change. This is manifest through reusing fabrics in a way that allows for nostalgic elements of the garment to be given a new life; or reincarnated.”
