Artist’s Statement

I consider fibre my language, replete with nuances, idioms and metaphors. Narrative is a primary focus as many of my works are produced as elements in a series. I invite the viewer to consider the before and after implied in my images and I strive to make a close connection between materials and ideas.

My BFA in Visual Arts and an MA in Liberal Studies from Simon Fraser University have given me a wide-angle lens with which to view the world and a fascination for the ongoing research that also informs my work. I exhibit, give talks and workshops, volunteer, write professionally on the arts, and teach as a sessional instructor at the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design.
