This Is What Love Looks Like in Layers
Ebb & Flow – Anchored in Love, Guided by Gratitude is more than just an exhibit—it’s a personal reflection of growth, grief, and the beautiful mess of becoming.
Now showing at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, this 12-week ocean-inspired collection was featured in Port City Daily and is made entirely from upcycled materials: Amazon boxes, liquor cartons, reclaimed wood, and hand-poured resin.
Art that tells a story. Materials that have lived a life. Love that carries through the tides
This project began as a way to heal. Carpe Amorem—Seize the Love—isn’t just the name of the studio. It’s a reminder to hold onto what matters and honor the beauty in what remains. These pieces are love letters in physical form. They're meant to connect us—to the ocean, to each other, and to something a little bigger than ourselves.
