About The Artwork
Public Performance first performed at the Lime Light Gallery, NYC in 2000. Subsequently performed over the past decade in multiple galleries and public venues. Apples suspended from strings, hands behind back; first one to the core wins. This Autumn-time game originating on farms, assumed by suburban school children, is now appropriated for art to communicate the frustration of the artist's inability to reach a broader audience. Alone in a room full of suspended apples, hands bound, I eat each to its core. I choose the symbol of apple with all of its history, from the Biblical to the Scientific to the Schoolhouse, with whom to combat. When one core is reached another apple waits, without fail, without end. The fruit offers no nourishment only indigestion.

I am a multi-media artist. I make images and experience. My images and performances celebrate the mundane and exalt the everyday to history and icon. I work to achieve a balance between composition, materials and meaning. In my performance pieces, I often make rules and parameters that limit my behaviour - this makes opportunity for artistic exchange. Reoccurring themes create a tempo and pattern throughout my work. Nostalgia, education and learning, family, history, storytelling and diary keeping are concepts that have contributed to my artmaking. Texture and pattern are essential elements in my picture making. It is a visual mixture that dances the viewer's eye across and around the surface. I embrace the ideal of revealing the materials and craft in my work. Breadth and variety of topics and media with a heavy conceptual bent directs my personal practice. Painting, Performance, Printmaking, Collage, Sculpture, Photography, Film and Video
