Hand-dyed cotton rope, glass beads.

Using needle and thread with a variety of materials, I create self-supported, three-dimensional forms that evoke movement and energy. I am happiest with slow, contemplative processes that allow – in fact, require – time to examine and think.

What excites me about working in three dimensions is exploring the relationship between negative and positive space. A tension develops between a hole and the physical material pressing against it. I am compelled to reveal this tension and transform commonplace materials into unexpected shapes.

Thank you for visiting my Web site. I would love to hear from you!
