Artist Statement
Solitude is where I find the origin of my inspiration as I use a type of productive daydreaming to fuel my work. I have sought to suggest a place where universal themes from the past, present and future merge, a desire to make everlasting present time. I believe that the idea of making present time last can only exist in our dreams and in art. Like fabric, sheets of copper, paper, and canvas are cut and collaged together. I weave together personal narratives, private dreams and internalized landscapes. The geometric arrangement of the compositional elements of my work is not unlike quilts women have pieced together as part of the domestic experience for many years. The repetitive nailing as I work keeps me focused- grounded, linking me to the spiritual aspects of “women’s work.” Mystery and secrets, the fantastical and the mundane are woven with paint and tacks into layers slowly revealed to the viewer.
