About
I have been fascinated by movement since I started dancing as a child.
The body is a continuum of movement and music my inspiration. It is
my passion to bring this same sense of rhythm and movement to my
mixed media art.
I discovered that large gestural patterning, applied with commercial
and handcrafted brooms, is the instrument that brings this to life in
my work. I am transferring the elements of dance, the flow of the
body, and a stream of music into the layers on the cloth.
I delight in co-mingling gestures of the human body and strong visual
imagery with soft sensual cloth. Whether it is the music I am
listening to or the sweep of a dancers arm, the layers on the cloth
are the record of that moment in time.
