STATEMENT

Always drawn to sculpture I’ve found a wealth of problem solving skills outside of academia and in the realm of theatrical sculpture materials.

Growing up in New Orleans, my Carnival background prepared me for the comfort I’ve found with these non-traditional materials. They are more appropriate for much of the large scale work I do.

My recent hand woven wall hangings of cast off newspapers are a natural response to a digital age with which I’ll never catch up.  But most importantly, they make me laugh.
