6. Mara Hoffman Edition | Holiday 2022






On view November 2022 - Present
         The Mara Hoffman Flagship in NYC ︎ specializes in creating an in-store environment that celebrates and supports artists and craft. For their 2022 holiday season, I was invited to create my version of an artists’ edition. As someone who makes purposefully one-of-a-kind objects, this was a new challenge to balance both artistry and efficient production. My solution was this group of vases, entitled “Dancers,” which present different sizes and expressions of the same basic form. This allowed me to create something accessible to people with varying levels of budget, while maintaining the core values and approach of my practice.
