Artist Statement

My projects interact with the environment through physical form. I explore how an environment affects repetition and rhythm, movement, texture, transparency, and balance. Where I have traveled in my community inspires me to create. The art interacts with elements such as water, light, and wind. Many of the locations are at a place special to me: hiking spot, park I rollerblade at, meditation spot. I utilize recycled materials collected or gifted. Throughout this investigation, I have begun to focus on wearable art because the art has the ability to travel with me.
