What Melts, Remains (2026)
What Melts, Remains is a communal installation inviting participants to freeze small objects that represent their current emotional state. As the ice slowly melts in a shared vessel, the revealed objects settle together—transforming private feelings into a collective. The meltwater is then used to nourish seedlings symbolizing peace, protection, and resilience, turning fear and difficult emotions into growth and care.
Untitled (Dandelion) (2026)
This participatory project invites students and community members to take dandelion seeds and consider the quiet resilience of a plant often dismissed as a weed. Long valued in herbal traditions for nourishment and healing, the dandelion becomes a reflection on survival, belonging, and what it means to grow in contested ground.
