My process is an active negotiation with failure—a refusal of perfection in favor of raw honesty.
I salvage "worthless" remnants—foam, wire, and fabric—that reflect an internalized feeling of being "stupid, ugly, and boring."
I push these ordinary, lifeless materials until they become something valid, proving that even the most graceless things have an authority in being "vulgar" and overlooked.
