Artist in Residence - Casa Lu - Mexico City (2024)

During a three-month residency at Casa Lü, Mexico City, I developed a body of work through material experimentation informed by the region’s ecology, geology and craft traditions.

Working with locally sourced clay, stone, metal, recycled glass, cement and pigments,
I explored how materials carry relationships to place, culture and environment.
Processes included stone engraving, casting, mosaic and experimental combinations of natural and industrial materials.

The residency became a period of material-led research, allowing process and the properties of locally available materials to determine the direction of each work.
The resulting objects explore the intersection of natural formation, human intervention and traditional craft.
