Like an alchemist, turning lead into gold, I transform detritus into a story, a setting or a series of relationships. Many of my pieces suggest the human form/or animal body—with "stand-ins" for the head, the body (or vessel) and feet/legs. Though formally trained in art, I work in a stream-of-consciousness manner allowing the meaning of each piece to unfold through my manipulation of each disparate part.
My appreciation and familiarity with the mechanical is from my childhood exposure to carpentry and machine shops along with plastic fabrication in my parents' factory. My art materials come from my extensive collections and are augmented by sourcing through ETSY and EBAY. Yes, I have searched through junk shops, flea markets, antique shops, estate sales, thrift stores and more. I have been doing this for nearly 30 years.
