ARTIST STATEMENT

I love the process of digging through my filing cabinet of paper source material, searching for colors and textures that can be sliced, torn, reshaped and transformed into a completely new concept. Sometimes I use this process to make sense of the world. Other times, I use it to embrace and laugh at the absurdity of it all.

I aim to create feminist tableaus with bright colors and multiple layers of material to create depth and movement.

I am inspired by Dorothea Tanning, Artemisia Gentileschi, and Martha Rosler.
