Bio

In the fall of 2024, I began a one-year AAS in Textile and Surface Design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. This formative experience expanded my tactile design skills and sparked an unexpected dedication to weaving.

After more than a decade working in digital product and web design, I began a shift from my practical career path in Graphic Design toward a more passion-driven art practice. While this background shaped a thoughtful and intentional process, it also revealed a longing for deeper creative engagement and meaning.

In my art practice, I examine the parallels between the loom and the computer. Cloth becomes analogous to the pixelated screen, and the loom—often considered the earliest proto-computer—translates code into material form. The complexity of weaving mirrors computer programming, positioning the weaver as a holder of encoded knowledge. The weave draft functions as a record of authorship and intellectual ownership. Through this framework, I explore the relationship between the loom, the weaver, and the cloth as an analog counterpoint to the computer, the coder, and the screen.

By translating historical techniques such as tapestry and overshot into contemporary contexts, I invite viewers to reflect on their relationship to technology, nature, time, and perception. Through weaving, my work considers how technological mediation continually reshapes our connection to the natural world.
