Artist Statement:
My work is multiple layers of
ephemera, family photographs,
found objects and iconography
that are sealed with resin to
contain the imaginal space of
the story that the images
tell. Each piece begins with
an image that compels me, a
doll’s shoe, a saint card, a
photograph of my mother as a
child, a character from a
favorite children’s book or
myth, anything that evokes a
visceral response. I am
particularly attracted to
dichotomous imagery, for
example, the juxtaposition of
security and fear peculiar to
dolls. Then I experiment with
the narratives created when
that image is woven together
with other symbols. I
carefully map out each layer,
calculating the interaction of
colors and considering the
symbolic suggestion of each
element, its relationship to
other elements, and how that
will affect the composition
and the allegory as a whole.
I explore the potency of
imagery and the uniqueness of
personal responses to
universal symbols and stories.
