Artist Statement

​

​

Through a research-based studio practice that spans painting, ceramics, and sewing, I discover shapes that denote the experience of time, sound, or thoughts. Thick acrylic paint and building materials are used to develop a surface which suggests ancient relics, hieroglyphics, or runes. Variation in the color field, gives depth and creates space in which discovered shapes and symbols can emerge.  Process enables me to develop a personally-based language. These physical expressions within the work embody the generational inner knowing that often goes unspoken, unrecorded and, most frequently, unheard. In so doing, my work considers gender inequities and the power of spoken word and gives a visual voice to the feminine.
