Personal Statement: As a visual artist with a background in textile arts and design, my work explores the use of abstracted structures to suggest the human form. The apparitions evoke a moment in time in which a sense of movement occurs beyond the body. The viewer’s own imagination can explore the potential of each informational vessel.

I use basic hand construction techniques are to assemble simple materials such as cloth, paper, or wire. I construct multiple units which I then combine for lyrical portrayals; each time these individual units are configured together, it is an impromptu act. The completed whole reveals the manipulation of planes and spatial articulations, allowing for a constant change of interpretation, which becomes an integral part in the perception of each work.

Current Work
I am currently enjoying a Studio Residency with SWAP (Supporting Woman Artists Project) in Brooklyn, New York, and mentoring high school girls who do not have art classes in school.
