Alston Buildworks is my exploration of material culture and the illusions of permanence woven into the objects around us. It investigates how forms—both monumental and minute—shape what we perceive as culture, truth, and belonging.

With reverence for the everyday, I examine the quiet power of the objects that ground us, inspire purpose, and tether us to meaning. These artifacts of daily life challenge us to consider their roles as anchors, symbols, and constructs within the fluid narrative of our existence.
