Artist Statement: My work deals with the beauty of erosion and disintegration. I am particularly interested in the idea of the
body as a structure or object. The dispossession of these structures is both mysterious and intriguing to
me because I find an amount of personal discovery within the exploration of these places.
The concept of the body as an object or structure is also fascinating to me. I view the body as housing
for the soul: the spark within us all that makes us unique and gives us sentience. The act of
disconnecting and re-associating individual parts of the body asks the question "If a part of the body no
longer belongs to the whole, does it still contain that spark?"
My imagery is about displacement and unrest. Each piece is an emotional environment. I invite the
audience to explore and question their preconceived notions of how they view themselves and the world
around them. In creating these places and tableaus, I question my own ideas about traditional art forms
and beauty and redefine my aesthetic notions to include new ideas about shape, form and structure.
