I create sculpture and wearables to use as speculative devices in site-specific installation and performance I document with photography, to engage viewers to imagine, question, and emotionally relate with what adaptation could look like in a climate-altered world.

The wildfire shelters and shelterwear I create as speculative devices, exist in the tension between protection and illusion, in that they are objects appearing to offer safety, though ultimately underscore the limits of human ability at this time of unprecedented ecological instability. Working site-specifically in wildfire-prone or affected sites, I temporarily install and perform these devices as embodied responses to extreme weather. Their presence in vulnerable landscapes reflect a world where adaptation is no longer theoretical but urgently lived. And the resulting photographs serve both as record and invitation, engaging viewers to confront the emotional and psychological dimensions of environmental change and imagine new modes of survival.
