I don’t fully understand how I arrive at certain images or their meaning in the moment of action. I am connected to a historical lineage of artists who feel socially responsible to question current culture and our environment in the bigger picture,. I have chosen to work on paper for it’s ephemeral nature. As art critic Reena Jana writes:”Art on paper is one of the most effective ,immediate and enduring means of telling the human story, both in times of war and in times of peace”. Our future as humans is an unsteady vision of potential disaster or enlightenment. As a woman and mother I can imagine through generations, positive and negative outcomes based on current value systems. In my daily life I consider materials, information, waste and growth. These perspectives inform my art
