ARTIST'S STATEMENT

My collages are about old material used to create new work depicted in scraps of paper, fabric, and found metal. I rescue metal from alongside the road, pages from old books, and discarded fabrics from another time. This material is discolored, corroded and misshapen by the random process of history- a history that gets passed on to the figures. Each piece evolves through trial and error, the shapes and colors of the materials guiding the development.
