Each seasonal poster connects with the next and the colorful box can be turned into a small window garden.
(not quite) Random Acts of Agriculture - or - The Guerilla Gardeners Cookbook - There is a growing natural deficit in our lives. Vacant lots, empty flowerbeds, and chemically treated lawns have become everyday encounters.

The intent is begin to reconnect people with natural systems, incite discussion, and increase urban biodiversity.

The Spine - ‘The Spine’ was created through a progression developing forms and lamination techniques to simply see what materialized - focusing on ‘making first, designing later’. The more I forms constructed and the more I played with the components, the more interesting the combinations became. Eventually the piece evolved into its present skeletal form. Though the intention was not initially functional, it now serves as a rack for large-scale, rolled drawings.
