My work explores the dialogue between tradition and innovation in silversmithing. Through the use of mixed metals and the hammering process, I create vessels that embody simplicity and elegance. I invite viewers to reflect on the tactile and visual qualities of metal, while my practice remains rooted in a respect for traditional craftsmanship. At the same time, I am driven to push the boundaries of form and surface, aiming to evoke a quiet contemplation in those who encounter my work.
