my work and processes bridge that which is language-based, visual, aural, spontaneous and laboriously rendered.
i am very interested in time, and timing. and though i dearly wish i could claim to be a master craftsperson of any kind, the only thing i can really claim is a forever attempt to remain ritualistically open to recognizing moments, and to letting them and all their energies pass through me freely. this, i believe, is part of what makes the world go round.
