ON BUILDINGS
“buildings mean something to all of us. buildings are the silent friends and backdrops to our lives. they help us, and stabilize us as we grow, make memories, and build friendships in and around them.
‘as an artist, my pursuit is to capture the tectonic beauty of the buildings that impact us the most. an essential part of this is you and your own experiences. how have buildings shaped you? is it that skyscraper you looked up to in a bustling season of life? is it the quirky shack that you sat up against with a friend to have a meaningful conversation? maybe it’s a home, with the creeky wood floors, that provided solidarity and peace during time of change.
‘my pursuit is to preserve the built history that has impacted us. if a building has impacted you, or someone you know, i believe it’s worth preserving through art.”

“clay has been an amazing collaborator and contributor as the illustrator of civil sites... [working with clay] ended up being such a great decision because not only is his work beautiful, it chronicles a moment in time… and we wanted something that people can look back at in the years and decades to follow and say, ‘this is what sweet auburn was.’”
