Rooted in her passion for nature, Halle's artistic practice explores the tension between the synthetic and the natural. Combining a variety of materials, including recycled paper, yarn, paint, plants, and more, Halle's projects mimic natural phenomena in an obviously handmade way. Halle is currently investigating her relationship with plant life and how to express her personal experiences using natural phenomena as analogies and storytelling methods.
