- Artist Statement
- Over the last two decades I have developed a way of working by using a vocabulary of materials as I once used paint. It is a playful back and forth process of discovery and construction using wallpaper, fabric, silkscreened patterns and paint. I’m searching for an evocative form in a believable space. These scavenged and collected materials bring a history, texture, physicality and sometimes humor to the work. In the last six months, the emergent form has become a figure. In this time of solitude and reflection I take note that this figure harks back to the elaborately costumed women I painted in the 80’s. The figures in the new work are holding objects- a gift or an offering.
