About The Artwork
This is a photograph of an installation made from preserved Bougainvillea petals. It is believed that the Bougainvillea plant was “discovered” by Jean Barre, an expert botanist, and quite possibly, the first woman to circumnavigate the globe. Because women were not allowed on ships, however, she was forced to disguise herself as a man, and as another botanist’s assistant. The tributary effect the petals form parallels both the literal water traversed as well as well as the natural, homeopathic relationship between women and the earth. Women experience a cyclical, tidal flow in conjunction with the cycles of the moon, just like the waters of the earth. Thus the form is indicative of both an internal and external terrain. Migration Is My Home, is thereby an homage to the immense power of the feminine, or yin.

My work varies in both medium and content, but what seems to be a primary source of inspiration is nature, more specifically the idea of collective behavior in plants, animals, and bacteria. Whether it's a print made up of tiny marks repeated across the page or an installation made up of thousands of little pieces, my work is often laborious, tedious, and meticulous. I believe that art, first and foremost, should have a visual presence - a seductive beauty.
