ARTIST STATEMENT

Worn, slept on, used to bandage and clean, textiles have been on intimate terms with the human body forever. The history and non-preciousness of recycled domestic cloth appeal to me. I work with it hoping to evoke a visceral response, provoke unfocused yearning and somatic memory. All of my work is saturated in textile/costume history in both visual reference and technique.
