ART - BA
My work is concentrated in weaving, sewing, and oil painting, particularly in ideas of stitching: at once creating holes and closing them. I look to the tug of the grid and the rhythm of the shuttle. The smoothness of oil paints, the play of color, and the movement of brush as a marker always of self, even as it performs the image it paints. I am learning these languages, searching the sides of the sidewalks for hints of their etymologies. I am composing as I add new vocabulary, reveling in new sounds and moments of direct communication.
