ARTIST STATEMENT
This work is part of a continuous exploration of the concepts of gap and transfer, linkage, and porous networks. I have been working with edges and surfaces as sites of exchange, accumulation, and connection. Fragments talk across gaps, with bodies, and as bodies. I want body and place to mash together.
