My artwork is symbolically female in spirit and represents the biological and spiritual parts of a woman. My ongoing series: In Fertility is a discussion of women’s mental powerlessness in our reproductive biology In talks with other women, I found the common strand of a complete helplessness in ones own biological fertility and reproductive autonomy. It seems in every facet, society and by in terms, life, make women disenfranchised from their own reproductive decisions. My series explores that out of control feeling, out of control of our reproductive choices, out of control over the narrative of being objectified by biological parts, losing independent identity and being signaled out in society as the mothers of sin in one variation or another. I want to illustrate the powerlessness, the blame, the disenfrachisement of the body vs. mind and the spiritual mystery of a woman’s reproductive story. My artwork illustrates women's parts divorced from their minds and the literal battlefield of good, healthy, normal and virtuous vs. bad, abnormal, and evil.
