My work is always becoming itself – outrageously flowery, feminine, explosive, tangled, dancing, unexpected, extra. It takes me on a journey that is non-linear, but not purely abstract. Working with clay, paper and drawing, I create emotive, biomorphic forms. I am drawn to the gestures of transformation found everywhere in nature; endless and simultaneous growth, disintegration, adaptation, and repurposing. In an intuitive and immediate process, I build an exploratory visual language with these archetypal shapes and gestures. 

I believe the presence of the maker’s hand builds a connection between artist and audience and that there is meaning in making. I use my hands to collage and recombine form- playing with movement and responding to the juxtapositions of lines and surface. The results are sculptural compositions that explode and meander; tactile journeys through color and form that never rest.
