My current work is a typological study, comparing different types of objects, suggestions and cultural perceptions. By colliding disparate materials and the viewer's body, the work examines individual perceptions of vulnerability and courage, of feminine and masculine, of public and private. It suggests and challenges the parameters that guide our thoughts and behaviors.

Through the poetics of form, material, space, light, time and my connections in this world, the work is a reflection and an investigation into my own life. It is an emotional and visual exposure of my own self. My intuitive process is based on my body, my connections, my remembrances and poignant collisions of perceived definitions. I am defined in this world by my gender, my race, my religion and my life experiences. I question myself about my beliefs, thought patterns and behaviors. All of this overlapping musing envelops the work in a sense of layered meaning, vulnerability and unanswered questions.

susceptible in fragility
tight ropes are wound
the body is held in firm connection

moving away from the remembrances
there is always a
preservation of the passage
