Artist
Statement
“My artwork comes from dreams and experiences, from dark places and moments
of light. It is filled with passion, rage, violation, sadness, compassion and
joy. Most recently my artwork gushes out of me in a variety of media — from
pastels to etchings to conceptual art and assemblages. Each medium and its process
are evocative of the mood of the artwork. Chalk pastels reflect the physical
energy of creation — from staccatoed-frenzy to soft, soothing strokes.
The exacting nature of my serigraphs and etchings allow for a precise articulation
of expression. The assemblages are a result of both destruction and building,
giving a visual voice to things that remain unspeakable. My artwork, like each
of our lives, spans the breadth of emotions — the darkness to the beauty — that
we live and experience each moment. It is not always pretty, but it is real.”
