I’ve always been inclined to work with fragments and the cumulative effects of assembling them.

Much like the fragments I found in the ashes, each book-object I make is just a shard of a larger thing, one volume of a larger fire story

I was granted a residency in Bjorko, Sweden for a month of writing and book arts in the company of several other wildfire survivors and I’ve been making progress toward what I hope will be a whole greater than the sum of its parts.
