I observe the areas of friction in the dog-human bond to investigate what these reveal about our humanity. Art meets spirituality meets science.
My fascination with dog collars reached new levels with this series of ceramic collars I’ve been working on. The series is called “The End of Love” and offers a reflection on collars and the way we “love” our dogs. Collars can be both symbols of safety and care, and means of control and abuse.

The pottery studio has been my refuge these past months. I’m working on a line of sacred objects inspired by our spiritual bond with dogs and my calling as an animal chaplain. 🖤 This vessel is inspired by the role of psychopomps dogs play in cosmologies around the world.
