The last couple of years have been strange. Each morning I dare myself to look at the news. Life has been complicated both near to home and far away. I have felt powerless to fix or change anything personal or in the bigger picture. As usual, I have turned to the comfort of making art, not trying to solve anything but simply to heal. I couldn’t stop the breaking but I could fill the cracks. Along with making art, the power of poetry and literature helped me. This series is a marriage between the words that have stayed with me and the images that spoke to me. (2016).
