ARTIST STATEMENT My primary focus is women and deals with issues of relationships, perceptions and consciousness. How do we perceive ourselves when we are alone, and how does that change when we are in the presence of others? All of our relationships in life are reflections of who we are. These are recurring themes in my work.
As women we rely heavily on our relationships with our sisters, our mothers, and our girlfriends. With social media being what it is today, the concept of beauty has become such an externalized notion and these relationships have become more valuable, and at the same time more fragile than ever before.
