Mothers and Daughters Print

After losing my mom to breast cancer after a 17 year remission, I started the series called Holding On. My work often reflects issues around facing mortality, health and disease, mothers and daughter. This work includes the notion of loss, a reality and common condition of what it means to be human. We all face loss, yet in this series I try to hold on to the connection that has made up the relationship that is never lost. The use of hands is to me a powerful symbol because hands are our point of connection. Through touch we feel, and from the veins that run through, they are our lifeline. I feverishly photographed my mom holding each family member's hand and each of those photo transfers starts the layering upon it. They are small, 12 x 12 wood blocks, best displayed in groupings. I hope that in this work, the viewer can literally feel the sense of love and loss.
