ABOUT SAGE + SAPLING
✜ THIS ARTISTIC PROJECT IS CONTINUOUSLY EVOLVING + CHANGING AS I LISTEN TO THE HEART. CURRENTLY THE FOCUSES ARE ON GEOMETRIC WOODEN HOME DECOR, LAND- BASED HOUSEHOLD ITEMS + DELICATE PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY.
✜ THE MAIN DRIVE BEHIND THE PRODUCTION OF THESE 3 WORKS IS TO DISCOVER THE DEEPLY ROOTED CONNECTIONS WE AS HUMANS HAVE WITH MOTHER NATURE. A RELATIONSHIP THAT HAS BEEN FORGOTTEN BY MANY.
✜ FOR THE LOVE OF SENTIMENTAL STORIES, ALL WOOD CREATIONS ARE CRAFTED WITH REPURPOSED MATERIALS HELPING ME TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IN REDUCING MY ECOLOGICAL FOOTPRINT.
✜ SAGE + SAPLING CONTINUES TO ROTATE THROUGH A COLLECTION OF HANDMADE PAINT PIGMENTS THAT ARE HARVESTED HONOURABLY FROM NATURAL MATERIALS LIKE ROCK SEDIMENT + CLAY.
✜ ALL OF THE DYES + SEALANTS FROM 2020 FORWARD ARE MADE FROM ORGANIC MATTER + HAVE NO HARSH CHEMICALS, IN HOPES TO CREATE ART THAT IS SAFE FOR BOTH THE PLANET + THE BODY.
✜ THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHY AND PORTRAIT WORK, THE INTENTION IS TO CAPTURE THE ENDLESS BEAUTY OF THE IN-BETWEEN, SOFT + TENDER MOMENTS LIKE THE SEASONS + BEING HUMAN.
