My work looks for edges, those thin lines between the public and the private, between what we are told is the truth of a situation . . . and what we know is its reality. My work springs from those edges and resolves through an exploration of my own experience. 

The past six months have been a creative examination of aging spurred both by observing the increasingly condensed lives of my parents and by my own wrestle with menopause, a fight from which I emerged as both winner and loser. The result is a range of stitched narratives or "starratives" all worked organically and intuitively by hand and using discarded materials.
