Artist Statement: Working as a multi-disciplinary artist in sculpture, photography, installation; and with artist books, textiles and the archives, my practice considers and investigates the social, cultural, and political, with a particular attention to race, gender and power. As a white woman, my work as an artist is rooted in understanding the historical and cultural context of my family and self, in order to open up conversations and break through generational white silence.
I use the intimate relationship between architecture and nature to define how space is built, how we function within it and in turn, how it provides safety or provokes precarity in public and private. Through explorations with various materials, I use repetition to understand the subject and the evolution of each piece, with deliberate and thoughtful considerations.
Artist Bio:
I received a BA in Photography from Columbia College Chicago and an MA in Fine Art Printmaking from the Royal College of Art in London. My work has been featured in exhibitions and publications throughout the US and UK. I’ve received an award from the Illinois Chapter of The National Museum of Women In The Arts and an Illinois Arts Council Grant and was an Artist in Residence of Process Space, a Lower Manhattan Cultural Council studio residency on Governors Island, NY. I was a featured artist in The Whiteness Issue of The Racial Imaginary Institute, Maake Magazine and Libertroph Magazine.
“All of the works submitted are handmade, focused on slow, thoughtful and imperfection.The drawings are from observations of botanicals in various gardens. Focusing on the beauty, detail they take time and focus to complete. The integration sculptures were inspired by nature, finding comfort in constant change, and inspiration that nothing remains stagnant.”
