About The Artwork
Original collage using plastic nurdles, microplastics, cut paper, magazine clippings, EcoPoxy resin on reclaimed wood. Nurdles are virgin plastic pellets used to make a variety of plastic items, lost at sea and collected on the beach in Portugal. I use 'microplastics' to describe the tiny broken plastic pieces I use, also found on the beach. 'Our Ancient Future' is a phrase I borrowed from a friend. I love it because it feels like a prophecy that rings true. After so much "progress", our society will undergo an inevitable correction, and by necessity turn to ancient wisdom. The hierarchies of man will be submerged again in the mighty ocean, and we will remember how to revere nature and live within her cycles. Artwork is equipped with hardware and ready to hang. Coming Soon…

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.
