The Holding Chair & The OverGrown collection of sculptural furniture pieces is a collaboration with furniture maker Daniel Hayden. Merging my sculptural textiles with Hayden’s furniture to explore neurodivergence through imbalance and growth. By disrupting function with form, we challenge perceptions of everyday objects. Together, we embrace raw materials and a shared aesthetic of “perfect imbalance” to blur the line between utility and expression.
