PERSONAL SUMMARY
Ceramic artist and literary translator with an emphasis on ecocriticism. My ceramic art centers around functional, wheel-thrown vessels that explore gesture and exaggerated, cartoonish forms. I am passionate about language and literature, cultural criticism, environmental ethics, and visual arts.
