The Crucible series urges a conversation between individual and global moments, touching on intimate aspects of this relationship. The porous connection between a lived experience to the far-reaching environment is portrayed through domestic, material manifestations. The artist’s own souvenirs, inherited objects, and hand-built ceramics interface with instances of environmental disaster and geo-planetary disruption. Crucible for condensing and drifting depicts a Monstera leaf, Kaddish cup
from Belarus, and original drawings atop NASA imagery of clouds over the Amazon.
