Artist statement

Mixed media/collages and visual poems are digitally exhibited. The mixed media collages are created by deconstructing and reconstructing found images fragments and words from print sources, to form new structures. The grief I experience after the accidental fall and loss of my young son is nonlinear, and working with erasure/collage and paint shapes the work with the use of new juxtapositions. These constructions are a way of navigating a new path forward.
