Artist Statement and Biographical Notes

"I am an interdisciplinary artist working across many boundaries, time and space, medium and discipline, and I am fascinated with the place of in-between.

I make visual art, construct installation, and I am engaged in animation, video, and most recently 3D sculpture, and artists’ books. My early background is in photography and drawing. I especially enjoy collaborations with other artists. I travel whenever the opportunity is presented and I have been teaching art process and practice to undergraduate and graduate students in Boston, Massachusetts and most recently in Santa Fe, New Mexico. My work has been shown primarily in the United States.

Through my work I have explored many subjects, the human unconscious, language, Buddhist thought, perception, and the notion of transcendence. I am deeply curious about the possibility and expansion of human freedom."
