My interactive installations play with the notion of private space within public space. These mixed media installations include oil paintings as well as paper mache, sculpture and woodwork.

I like to create an experience for the viewer that invites them to consider their inner life. Taking a look inside, not as an escape but as an quiet encounter with oneself, a winding wander in the terrain of emotions, thoughts , feelings, sensations.

My work explores dreams, impermanence, and the shadow aspect of our unconscious mind. I draw on my childhood Catholic experiences , my current practice of Soto Zen meditation and experiences doing expressive arts body mind therapy.
