Bird’s Eye View
Nature: An Emanation of Perfection is a quiet tribute to the resilience and beauty of the natural world, expressed through two distinct yet harmonious mediums: hand-forged metal sculpture and delicate embroidery on handmade paper.

Crafted from reclaimed scrap metal, the sculptures capture the bold essence and poised movement of birds—symbols of strength, adaptability, and grounded freedom. In contrast, the embroidered works—stitched with wild-foraged inks and thread on textured handmade paper—offer a tender counterpoint, drawing us into moments of stillness, softness, and intricate connection.

Together, they form a dialogue between strength and fragility, flight and stillness—a celebration of nature’s enduring grace.

Now On View: Bird Embroidered on Handmade Paper

To keep this space intentional and uncluttered, Bird’s Eye View is presented in rotation. The current selection features minimalist birds embroidered on handmade paper—simple, elegant stitches that capture the essence of flight and form with quiet restraint.

These works invite reflection on nature’s delicate balance and subtle beauty, revealing how simplicity can capture profound moments of flight, presence, and connection.
