We see a connecting thread with Hoyt's background in fashion/apparel and her current abstract sculptures which appear to deconstruct the very essence of a worn garment. We encourage you to read her statement below, look at the work and let us know what you think…

The reflection begins at the contradiction in embracing and rejecting tradition within the same moment. My work pays tribute to the spaces between present and past, between awake and asleep, and other transitory temporal experiences. I devote particular attention to the passage of time and to honoring the sense of slow time. I both lament and revere a past that quite possibly never had a present. I explore certain aspects of accumulation inherent to various tending rituals. Wrapped up in the obsessive process is the state of consciousness induced by repetitive or rhythmic activity, an embodiment of my desire for wholeness quietly couched in words, objects, and space.
