ARTIST BIO

Artist's Statement
My current body of work is primarily embroidery, embellishment and applique. I am also branching out to include wooden elements in order to give my pieces more depth. Throughout the artworks, the main themes are science and nature. Some pieces are stitched from patterns I made using an amalgamation of photos that I have taken. Others use images from the lenses of microscopes and telescopes to blend together the visual similarities between the micro and macro world. Lately, I find myself struck by the fact that while humans are making a massive impact on the health of the planet, we are also small and inconsequential in the grand scheme of the universe. I hope that when people see my work it makes them curious.
