About: I love things I can’t figure out. I love things that are beautiful and disturbing at once. Everything should be fierce and kind and cozy and unexpected. I make things, I imagine the shapes of invisible contours between things people haven’t realized are connected yet. I can’t draw or play an instrument, but I can find pretty pieces and join them together. Getting bored is not allowed.
