NOURISH was founded on the intent to support the creative endeavor of others, and to speak to why we create and collect. To bridge the gap between person and object. The why before the what. Through material and the intimacy of making, we express and excavate our experiences of being human. Resolving and uplifting by way of beauty and the creative mind. This is why we create and collect. Our universal language, without words. And this, is why NOURISH exists.

It is my belief that all creative endeavors exist on the same horizontal line as Art. Thus all should be curated together: furniture, painting, jewelry, ceramics, books, food, etc. The artisan and the artisanal. Each of these categories have the same function, to uplift, inform and otherwise bring joy, through the depths of beauty and the creative mind.

The creative arenas are difficult to manage on one’s own. It is also difficult to bridge the gap between creator and the general public. It is through the community of creators, collectors, and educators that the light is shown upon the benefits of living with and appreciating art, be it a chair or a painting.

I believe strongly in what the creative mind can do. If we can destroy inadvertently, we can create intently, a better now and future. Through architecture, art, and design we create possibility. This is my intent with NOURISH.
