ART / GEOGRAPHY - BA

Fiber art as both method and material communicates strong connections to the natural world and immemorial ways of creating and existing with the environment. My bodily experience influences my work intrinsically; I play with connotative and denotative associations of materials that activate the viewer’s senses so they “feel” the work as I do. I present art as sensory stimulation as a way of emotionally connecting with our urban and natural environments to produce legitimate and serious knowledges. It is important that after viewing my art, one leaves with a new physical feeling they can return to when encountering different environments.
