Rooted in a fascination with geological forms, the work of Kaleido Wire and Stone explores the intersection of raw materiality and spiritual symbolism. What began with a small amethyst purchased at a festival evolved into a deep engagement with lapidary arts, metalwork, and the expressive potential of natural stone. Early studies in beading and stone cutting through a local gem and mineral club laid the foundation for an artistic practice centered on transformation — of materials, of meaning, and of the maker.
Drawing inspiration from Brutalist architecture, the artist embraces the aesthetic of the unrefined: surfaces that reveal their origins, forms that honor imperfection, and structures that foreground the inherent strength of their components. This influence is evident in her soldered metalwork, where rough edges, organic asymmetry, and reclaimed fragments are elevated into intentional compositions.
Her signature Cross Key series and sculptural crosses, often constructed from scrap metal, reflect a belief that discarded elements can be reassembled into new purpose. This process echoes the biblical clay‑pot parable, underscoring themes of renewal, resilience, and divine reclamation.
Through a practice that merges geology, craftsmanship, and faith, Kaleido Wire and Stone creates pieces that feel both ancient and contemporary — artifacts shaped by the earth, refined by hand, and grounded in the pursuit of beautiful forms emerging from raw origins.
