Pathway 1, 2023

Graphite and acrylic ink on book board

30" x 30"

I received my M.F.A. in Book Arts and Printmaking from San Francisco State University and my BA in Literature and Women's Studies at Oberlin College. I live and work in Berkeley, California.

I am an installation artist who works with a variety of materials including wire, used book parts, graphite, found wood and metal. I create bodies of work that explore the interplay between light and shadow, 2D drawings and 3D sculptures, and the way objects and drawings can energize and animate the space around them. My work can be seen at the Seager Gray Gallery in Mill Valley, the SFMOMA Artist Gallery in San Francisco and Kala Art Institute in Berkeley.

My public art pieces are on permanent display at: Kaiser Permanente Oakland Medical Center; Stanford Medical Center in Emeryville; Kaiser Hospital in Redwood City, CA; The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation in Palo Alto; the Public Libraries in Hayward and Lafayette; Square HQ in San Francisco; and Guild Row in Chicago, IL. Most recently, my work was placed in the residence of the Ambassador to Kuwait thru the US Department of State's Arts in the Embassies Program. It will be exhibited in Kuwait City thru 2023.

I have done two different artist residencies - one at the Vermont Studio Center and the other the SIM residency in Reykjavik, Iceland - and I have found them immeasurably helpful in developing seeds of ideas. The starting points for recent bodies of work, including "Tending" and the "Burst" series emerged as a result of being set loose in an unknown place and seeing where I landed, what I found there and where I pointed my feet.
