i play with paper obsessively. whether stacking layers of cut paper or reworking familiar objects, their development never goes as planned. this is where careful planning and precision hug surprise.
i was born in japan (1970), adopted, and moved around the states with my family until we landed in washington state.
after nearly 30 years in europe, amsterdam is home.
having spent years demanding meaning from every piece, i’m learning to let paper lead the dance. narrative can take a backseat while i learn to linger in what’s playful, haunted or incomplete.
