Sinopsis

I am a visual artist who uses a variety of media to explore feministthemes and the self. My approach to both art and poetry is the same,collage. I find images or words I am innately attracted to, cut themout, arranging and rearranging until I find the perfect picture. I amheavily influenced by the found object, discarded magazines, the skyin a piece of junk mail, the still frame of a paused movie, the shapeof a scrap of paper, any likeness or shape that calls to me. I considerthe images of prehistoric goddess figurines, paramount and central tomy own art, as a found object, Something someone was compelled tocreate that was lost or discarded, then found again. My poems areinspired by the found word, fortune cookies, passing billboards, myteenage diaries, made up and mis-heard songs, overheardconversations, grocery lists, and all other manner of words heard orseen in serendipitous encounters. I use collage to create a sacredspace for these images and words, ancient and new. I feed myselffound words and images, digesting, reconstructing, honoring formand phrase, creating a sacred place for each, and then gluing everyone down in its rightful place.
