artist's statement

I question when the shift happened- when humans stopped knowing that they are nature. When did we step out of the rhythm of the earth and into our own sense of reality? How has that changed our relationship with the natural world and all that lives in it?  
 
These are questions I ask when I ponder the beauty of a flower or see the fiber structure in an invasive vine. Studying the processes that humans have used for millennia to construct the things we need is what inspires my work and reconnects me to the ancestors- both human and plant. 

My work could be considered mixed media, but I choose to highlight that which brings me inspiration and material- plant based art.

Thank you for taking the time to look around. I am glad that you are here.
