Your artwork transmits clarity to me, a light of happiness, a light of childhood when the sun illuminated everything.

Practices
Light and Architecture
Work developed in close relationship with architecture, where light is gathered, diffused, and released across the space. As architectural stained glass, it shapes the experience of the building over time, becoming part of its rhythms of use and worship.
Theology and Image
Work grounded in the theological and symbolic traditions of the church, drawing from scripture and the worship space. These contemporary stained glass installations shape atmosphere, carry meaning, and support the lived experience of the liturgy.
Process and Material
Work rooted in a watercolor-based process, where transparency, layering, and gesture guide the development of form. This approach is carried into the glass, creating depth, luminosity, and a shifting presence of color over time.
