Times, places and memories are a strong influence in my life as an artist and as an individual. This exhibit presents each of my pieces as markers in this personal timeline. Here, collage is not only a technique but is a metaphor, connecting these themes which are central to my work as an artist.

Moreover printmaking, drawing and painting, along with incorporating found images, allows me to create layers, and add texture while using these elements in both my artist’s books and two-dimensional pieces.
The artist’s books in this exhibit examine synesthesia, stellar cartography, and an imaginary language. 2D pieces include works on handmade paper, collage pieces with prints, drawings, paintings and ephemera, found and recycled, referencing moments and places that have influenced my view of the world.

Each work is a narrative in my timeline.
