ARTIST STATEMENT

Experiencing and reflecting.

Ireland – The colors, the overall essence of the landscape, architecture, culture and history – I sought out local, pure fiber in the ultimate treasure hunt.

Creating “A Piece of the World – A Piece of You.”

“Out of the Box” takes many forms to many people. Take it as you please.

Whether from society, from upbringing and/or from the boundaries we put on ourselves.

Growing and releasing from what is expected, what and who we think we should be and should do.

Growing, pushing, breaking – outside of the box.

MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUES
