Welcome to the Contagion Series: lost components, a collection of unique and collectible objects that hold deep personal significance and artistic expression. Each piece in this series is a result of a creative journey that began with the discovery of my military gear and the memories they evoke from my time on deployments to the Middle East. Through the intricate process of Pate de Verre glass casting and meticulous replication of these cherished objects, I have crafted each item with care and intention, allowing them to serve as symbols of my soldier identity and the intersection of my military and civilian life.
