On the surface, lambskin, off-the-shelf wood, lustrous metals and light. My work is about loss, loss I’ve experienced, as a daughter, a wife, a mother, a friend. I use sharp angles, textures and layers to build pieces that are strong, secluded and unsuitable. I reflect on the meaning of intended purpose and how things end up being used. On apparent emotional detachment as a prop to adapt.
Art has been a constant in my life. Decades of influences from so many disciplines, experiences, my craft and cultures. Surrealism, Dadaism, film, photography, performance art, Modernism, Brutalism, architecture, industrial & graphic designs are intertwined in my conscious and subconscious minds. I am building a path between my expression of myself and time. Perception, memory, introspection screaming loud. I want my work to be a conversation with the spectator. Imagine thoughts, time and places I take you to.
