Using photo transfers, fiber paper, pastels, and paint, I layer the complexities of emotions surrounding loss and disease. I explore the dichotomy between pain and beauty, connection and separation, life and death. In these series, I use my mom’s snapshots, cutting and manipulating them between foreground and background. "Her Story is Ours" pulls the images together on a large unstretched panel taking my mom’s struggles as a woman and combining them with what is happening in the world today, putting our stories within the context of history and heritage. I appropriate and reconstruct my mother’s journey while then cutting up my writing to deconstruct my story in relation to our combined memories. My hope is to create a shared history where the intersection of lives lived connect, ebb, and flow. In such a chaotic world today, my experiences of loss and grief echo the tone and tenor as I search for meaning through art.

United States
I have been a working artist for over 20 years. After growing up outside of Chicago, I moved to New York, where I received my master's of art from the prestigious program through NYU and the International Center of Photography. When I returned to Chicago, I continued to work on my art, writing and curating all while raising 4 kids. My work focuses on the effects of genetics, the mother/daughter relationships, and the body. I explore themes of cancer as a metaphor in my own work as well as the biennial exhibit I curate, Voices & Visions, Standing on the Bridge Between Health and Disease. The mind, body and spirit connections and separations echo the theme in art that out of darkness comes light.
