In a world driven by consumption and rapid turnover, the discarded often fades into obscurity, pushed aside by the short term satisfaction of the new. 'Something transcending' invites you to pause and reflect on the beauty that emerges when the forgotten is reimagined.

Traces of their past lives

Each piece in this collection is crafted from damaged and discarded objects, transformed through an intricate process that melds time, care, and intention. As these materials undergo their metamorphosis, they carry with them traces of their past lives, interwoven with new purpose and meaning.

Each object reveals its hidden potential

The act of creating these works is a meditative journey, where the repetitive motions of assembling and reshaping become a dialogue between the artist and the materials. It is a process of discovery, patience, and quiet contemplation, where time slows, and each object reveals its hidden potential. Resulting in transcendence for both the object and its maker.

The value of transformation

Through these pieces, we are reminded that what is often seen as broken or worthless can be reborn, holding within it a deeper significance. They offer a space to appreciate the value of transformation and the quiet power of the meditative state in which these works are created.
