About The Artwork
Original collage with cut paper, magazine clippings, plastic packaging, printed film, microplastics, and plastic nurdles on paper. Nurdles are virgin plastic pellets used to make other plastic items. They are shipped around the world and lost at sea and in waterways. The nurdles and microplastics used here were collected from the beach in Portugal. War, genocide, climate change, mass extinctions, “normal life”? I don’t really know much about anything, but making art helps me process. I created this work during the first days of the war in Ukraine, feeling the overwhelming collective energy of our times. Today world events continue to permeate my consciousness, even living in a peaceful beach town in Portugal. Still processing… Artwork is framed with light natural wood and acrylic, ready to hang.

Portugal
Inspired on the beaches of Portugal to use trash as a collage material, I am exploring the material properties and meaning of plastic waste. My interest lies in building layered surfaces activated with transparency, reflectivity, and fragmentation. My methods are drawn from my background in textiles, my love/hate relationship with painting, and my natural proclivity for collage. Using symbolism, decoration and light, I mine the historic use of these visual languages in religion and spirituality. I am seeking a transformation and elevation of material to question notions of value in our consumerist culture.
