Artist Statement

-A small force applied consistently over time makes great change-


I document time and transformation by collecting, repurposing, layering, and recombining materials. My work is influenced by topography, geology, process, and chance. 

Topographic forms are layers of time: material evidence of change; stacking, layering, adding. Stacking materials creates deposits of time, visual evidence of change. I reuse materials and love the transformation process. I value reducing my carbon footprint. 

Current work explores topographic shapes as metaphors for personal transformation. My adult life is a journey of learning and discovery, correcting what is broken, removing what is unnecessary, and trusting the process.
