Artist Statement:
In my work of silhouettes I am
interested in capturing the
essence of particular moments
and actions. With a minimum of
details, the scenes create a
familiar atmosphere that
allows the viewer room for
interpretation.
My medium is papercutting; I
have been working in the
format of books and scrolls.
These books are conceived as
narratives (with or without
text), an easily transported
form of nomadic art.
These books of papercuttings
are unique art objects.
Changing light and points of
view offer diverse shadows.
