Artist Statement:
The compulsion to fix and repair as one moves through a transformation becomes obsessive for me. While hoping initially for restoration, what we get instead is a new thing entirely. The optimism of the feminine pushes my creative compulsion forward. It is instinctual to me. The methods I use in my work mirrors the internal process. Like a material that has been heated and stressed, we adapt and become stronger. The youthful wish that we may glide through this process attractive is no longer important. We only hope to make it: to slide muddy and bloody, to the finish line.
