I’m opening a new exhibition on the 22nd of June at the Pendleton Center for the Arts. This show will showcase works in a variety of mediums including fabric, glass and bronze.

The overarching themes that thread the work together are “rootedness” and “blooming”. I am continually processing through thoughts that deal with my place in relation to my ancestry, my current place of living, my obligation to community and the purpose of my working. As I continue to deal with these ideas (and many more) I am intentionally trying to put down “roots” so my life and work can have the essential structure needed to experience a rich period of blooming.

I hope you have the opportunity to experience the exhibition. However, if you are unable to see the work in person and would like to see additional images, please visit the Pendleton Center for the Arts web site. If you have additional questions about the works in the show or would like to comment on my rambling thoughts, please feel free to get in touch with me.
