About The Artwork
This piece is the first in a series where I began to cut up my mom's snapshots. I have appropriated the bins of my mom’s snapshots to recreate her path, to mark her journey in an abstract way, to redefine her life’s story in context to my own. I record the places where I hold onto our shared memories and intertwined, I piece together my writing to reconstruct our story, our lineage, and our genetic heritage. My hope is to create a record of existence, the places stepped and the people encountered are as fleeting as the life she lived. Art has the ability to immortalize, not just the artist but the subject. In this work, I appropriate her snapshots to recreate the complexity of the bonds between mother and daughter, the grief in dealing with loss, and the connection to our memories.

United States
I have been a working artist for over 20 years. After growing up outside of Chicago, I moved to New York, where I received my master's of art from the prestigious program through NYU and the International Center of Photography. When I returned to Chicago, I continued to work on my art, writing and curating all while raising 4 kids. My work focuses on the effects of genetics, the mother/daughter relationships, and the body. I explore themes of cancer as a metaphor in my own work as well as the biennial exhibit I curate, Voices & Visions, Standing on the Bridge Between Health and Disease. The mind, body and spirit connections and separations echo the theme in art that out of darkness comes light.
