Visual Symbols
Clay, Ink
4" x 6" x 6'"




This ceramic sculpture entitled "Search Inward" was inspired by my desire to constantly learn more about myself. My intent is to visually communicate the journey one takes into their own psyche to discover things about themselves they never would've learned without the power of self reflection. I wanted to focus of comparison of size to show how small we are compared to how much there is within ourselves to learn. I decided to add the with the small man walking into the large head to play into this narrative. I would love to keep diving into the idea of self exploration due to the amount of creativity it has given me. The making of this work exposed me to new ideas such as the comparison of size and how much of a tone it can give to a certain piece.

I want to keep exploring the research behind our sleep cycles and what makes us experience what we do while we are asleep. The making of this work exposed me to new ideas such as visually communicating feelings and tones translated through sleep states.  Silvia Heger silvia-heger.ed Julian Watts http://www.julianwattsstudio.com/ Elsa Mora https://www.elsamora.net/project/one-hundre...

A Few of My Favorite Things

Hello Kitty Doll- I acquired this in a cool shop in San Diego California which is where I've gone with a close friend of mine from high school a few years in a row, this brings up fond memories of those trips.  Glass Prism- I found this glass prism along with four others in a local thrift shop, I felt that this was not a coincidence because there was Alice in Wonderland characters on them, this has been my favorite movie for as long as I can remember so finding these prisms was a really cool and exciting experience for me.  Yerba Mate- This is my favorite caffeinated drink, this is also special to me because it is what I started drinking when I started making healthier decisions for myself like cutting back on coffee consumption.  Rubik's Cube- In my self-bettering journey I've also been cutting back on my unnecessary technology usage. The Rubik's cube has been a huge part of helping me with this because it is a brain stimulating puzzle as opposed to mindlessly scrollin...
