TheÊcups I make willÊexist in a different environment outside of my art studio. Although I don't know the details of that space, IÊknow this cup will be touched byÊhands and mouths. I know that it will rest on a surface. I like to think about how small objects affect their environment; when I make a cup, I imagineÊthe texture, color, and shape of my cupÊsubtly affecting dynamic ofÊthe whole. Ê
