ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My imagery comes from contemporary scenes I witness which intersect with my emotional inner dialogue. Rendering these compositions in fabric, paper, and thread, or a combination thereof, these images of everyday life resound with symbolic meaning. Guarded speaks to my need for protection, both physically during covid, but also emotionally in relationships. The ability to step around the self-imposed barriers we construct exists, if we are brave enough to make that choice.

I love to discover and recreate the striking compositions that surround me: Scenes from my everyday experience that speak to me visually while resonating with me emotionally. Sewing since I was eight, I find the best way to express myself is by translating these images into fiber collages using fabric, paper, needle, and thread. I want to recreate the observed image to feel it again, not just see it. Rebuilding a composition piece by piece submerges me back into the space of that second in time and allows me to relive it in a way a photograph doesn’t permit. Joining these materials to each other brings my world back into focus and makes the fleeting moment tactile once more. From a distance, my work reads as a painting, print or even a photograph. It is only with closer inspection that the work’s true construction reveals itself, giving the viewer more and more to visually explore and spend time with.
