CHIH Design

 
 

My work is both functional and sculptural. I explore the images that surround us in everyday life: architecture, nature and the figure.


The contrast in a piece is important to me, whether it’s the juxtaposition of the smooth surface against the textured surface, or the organic versus the geometric forms. The color differences of metals and stones also help to finish the piece. I enjoy incorporating found objects with metal: the process of making something that has lost its original function, and making it into something different, something valuable and present it with a different perspective and giving it a “new life.”
