ARTIST STATEMENT:

“My art is an exploration of texture, color and dimension, for which I use the infinite possibilities of hand knitting, with filling, to create sculptural forms. Recently I have added the knitting of wire to expand my technique. These works may reflect a mood, an emotion, an ideas or societal condition. Fiber is a wonderfully dynamic medium. Free from any notion of patterns but armed with a lifetime of technique, I let the work evolve as it will. The process of knitting is also instrumental as a driving force in my art.

From this meditative process, a design can emerge as I knit; I push the boundaries of the stitches to translate an image or concept from my imagination or the real world into fiber. In most of my current sculptural projects I develop the final works from smaller knit and filled pieces. As life itself develops from phases and segments of time, these works emerge as I knit and explore.”
