Built from the nostalgia for intersecting cultures, the Cabinet of Memories is based on the proportions of a traditional East-Asian cabinet. The cabinet’s devotion to daily objects is found in its reinterpreted design; book splines celebrate the craft of a book’s spine and varying sizes of drawers and doors wrap the cabinet. Intended to hold space for long-term care of objects, the Cabinet of Memories is derived from recollections of my own family heirlooms.

The Tian Den lighting series is named after Taiwanese sky lanterns. A hand-sewn paper shade lays upon a structural wooden frame whose bamboo ribbing keeps the lantern’s form while allowing it to become animated by a breeze or passing body. The Yame Kozo Hadaura paper absorbs daylight, revealing the frame and accentuating the vitality of the lamp when both lit and unlit. Delicate details—wood wire coverings, an elliptical base, and handmade white stone ceramic fixtures—transform the mundane task of changing a light bulb into a ritual of care.

This series of wall hooks is my first interpretation of the Shaker craft movement. Each one-off hook does not belong to a rigid system but rather is intended to highlight the existing architecture of a space. The surface of the mounting plate was made to resemble the studs that construct a wall. These hooks may stand alone or be brought together. They are part of an ongoing interpretation of wall-mounted objects.
