From my most recent exhibition, RAW|RELEASE. Displayed at .

This piece was one I have been wanting to make for some time. Inspired by a ‘Presentation Vase’ made by Anna Pottery in the 19th century and a long journey of tending to my mental health, I renewed elements of the original vase concept to create something that reflected my identity more deeply.

While this piece was being shown, I invited viewers to write down something they’ve been wanting to let go of, and to drop it into the vase as a practice of personal release. Hundreds of submissions were received, sharing anything from a quiet wanting to let go of shame, or the past, to as big as sharing a story of a harm that was done to them. I thank everyone who trusted me with their confessions and look forward to what ways I can use these submissions in the future, to continue this practice of letting go, of release.
