Using a blade as my paintbrush, I cut and collage textile
images in a process which I call "textured fabric
relief." In these works, I translate movement,
rhythm, and emotion from my study of African dances
into painted and incised gestures.
In a variety of visual media, I am
exploring aspects of layered identity and constructs
of beauty, which are inherent problems in figurative
art.
