MIGRATORS
These sculptures have been a gradual inspired process which I infused with strong intention to hold light, dreams, challenges, hopes, sacrifices, defeats - allowing the ability to transmit and receive energy. To enrich the experience, I added the scent and the sound of earth and then nature itself.
ARTifacts
I am taken by the many ‘pieces’ that lay in the streets having lived their own stories. Pieces abondoned/discarded and yet have their own voice and speak to me.
{A PIECE OF TILE}…perhaps blown off a roof, from an immigrant that made his or her way here so many years ago with a pocket full of dreams.
{BURNT BICYCLE TIRE}…left to the elements, chained to a tree, after a chase or a desperate soul not understanding how to ask for help.
{STACK OF NY FASHION LABELS}…was it a bad idea and nothing sold, or the season is over and it is now so ‘yesterday’?
Now they encrypt another story.
COLLAPSING TIMELINES
I was really called to these old patterns. In the process of deconstructing them, I gave myself permission to replicate nature over time. These pieces are a visual expression and exploration reminiscent of an old Atelier — of times forgotten.
LOST PUZZLE PIECES
Let’s not take ourselves too seriously. I included this box of old puzzle pieces that I found humour in…we can choose to not take the lost bits too seriously and therefore nail those suckers down - they are going nowhere. Puzzle pieces personified to accentuate the humour within the journey — laughing at us and us hopefully laughing at life.
