I began making these bowls a few days after I was in a car accident and injured my right wrist, my dominant hand. I am most proud of these pieces because they were molded and partially painted with my non-dominant left hand, which was very challenging, and also a unique experience being able to connect with muscles in my body I haven’t used before, while letting other muscles heal.

Wrist inflammation has been a challenge for me for the past few years. I’m curious to explore other ways to create without using my hands, and I want to train myself to become ambidextrous.
