My work explores the relationship between form, material and space.
With a background in object design and years of international work experience in Hong Kong and China, I create contemporary sculptures defined by reduced lines, balanced proportions and a strong physical presence.
Influenced by natural principles such as the Fibonacci sequence, as well as my study of Tai Chi, meditation and Feng Shui, my work explores balance, movement and stillness.
Each piece is handcrafted, primarily in copper, silver, gold and stone.
I see my sculptures as quiet anchors in space — objects that invite us to pause, reconnect and become present.
Alongside my existing collection, I create bespoke sculptures and wall objects for private and commercial interiors.
Scale, proportions, materials and expression can be tailored to the individual architecture and spatial context. Each piece is created as a unique work, designed to become an integral part of its surroundings while maintaining its own distinctive presence.
For interior designers, architects and design professionals, I also develop site-specific and made-to-measure pieces for individual projects.
For commissions and project enquiries, I would be happy to hear from you.
