STATEMENT

I am curious about spaces the body inhabits. Universal themes I traverse include embodiment, destruction, renewal, legacy, perseverance, and the space language and architecture occupy — with an interest in the vulnerable. My work is process-oriented, often beginning with a piece of fabric or paper, adding threads, ephemera, paint and markmaking — to create haptic, dimensional wall pieces, sculptural objects and installations. 

There is an inherent intimacy in what I make, no matter the scale. My attention lingers in the liminal, making connections between states of being and the need for belonging at a time when there is a poverty of empathy in our global community.
