Much of the work is based on potential conversations with the viewer.
Journal writing, thoughts and confessions, along with political
opinion, are poured out onto canvas or paper and subsequently either
partially obscured or completely obliterated. This is a cathartic
process, allowing the artist to focus her intentions more fully.
In so doing she explores the relationship between herself, her ideology,
creativity and her reality, and thence that of the viewer and the
work, giving away fragments of self, though never allowing full
access.
It is the artist’s intention that each piece should speak
for itself, as she believes that the ultimate value or quality of
an image is created as a result of the viewers’ own perception
and relationship with the work. Any message or intent of the artist
during the creative process is purely personal and understanding
of this by the viewer is incidental of the creative process and
is not essential to the viewer’s relationship with the work.
