I create fiber-based socially engaging figurative sculptures and installations to engage the viewer to explore the relationship between materials and form. I recontextualize the more feminized traditions and practices of fiber art inverted through the use of industrial materials to explore issues of gender identity, sense of place and purpose, and cultural identity and commonality. My recent focus is on repurposing and up-cycling materials using traditional fiber techniques to create installations of exaggerated clothing, and temporary public art displays.
