I am an artist:
• Who believes making art is adding value.
• Whose voice comes from an intimate and honest cultural point of view as much as an aesthetic vision.
• Who explores life’s cyclical nature, the juxtaposition of the angle - the grid of our man-made quest for order with the supple and circular experience of my reality.
• That believes the aged and deteriorating carry a defining, visceral beauty.
• Whose ardent focuses include my lifelong fascination with Mother Nature and a devout attraction to decaying objects.
• That uses the textures of “woman-made” and the disturbing honesty of feminine interruption, to expose our humanity.
• Who tends to work in series’ that span decades adding fresh inspirations devoutly.
• Who believes Art has the ability to “change outcomes,” and is passionate about being a catalyst for such change.
• That is driven by process and materials as much as by inspiration and is a purist of sorts. I believe that the roots of my materials and processes must be authentic to the work.
• Who uses drawing as my “visual vocabulary” and is essential to my daily practice but on occasion bursts into the mainstream of my body of work.
