In my studio, public art, and teaching practice, I create work that builds a narrative whole from the interaction of parts.

I construct mosaics, paintings, collages, and curriculum piece-by-piece. I build designs from juxtapositions among parts. I have been honored to create work in collaboration with other artists, writers, and educators. The exchange of dialogue, ideas, and images, across different perspectives and mediums, has always been a generative, surprising, and deeply creative practice for me. 

Powerful metaphors reside in the space between. 

I want to make work that reassembles, re-imagines and repairs. I am interested in art processes that invite personal and public constructions of meaning about lives worth living, through attentiveness to one another, and to the natural world.
