My current work has taken on the role of narrative, personal in conception yet universal in its interaction with the viewer. Most of my work is a reflection of me, my feelings, my interpretations, my memories, and opinions. They are collections and assemblages that evoke introspection regarding the self, institutions, and expectations. The narratives I express through ceramic sculpture, mixed media, and photography express gender identity, relationships, moral and political issues.
