Creative artistic expression, reality manifested through words and threads
My artwork arises from the sensitivity and beauty of the present moment of living, from
experiencing reality as it reveals itself to me.
At the heart of my work are textile art and writing, ways of perceiving and reflecting a world
I experience as deeply embodied and emotionally felt.
Working with my hands and writing make my inner worlds visible. It is living in sacred
connection with Life itself. It is building bridges of light. It is like an inner retreat, a journey
of devotion, a free and open space that nourishes my inner child and my inspiration, keeps
me alive and flowing. It is like a root system, a foundation upon which everything else can
be built.
Each piece, whether formed from thread, painted, or shaped as words on paper, is born
from authentic experience and a state of presence. Sometimes they seek to explain the
world and its many layers. Sometimes they express its subtle nuances, quiet messages,
small observations and inner movements that pass through me into the world of form.
Each piece is a trace of existence, a feeling, thought, or lived experience made visible. An
embodiment of what lives around me and within me.
Often I do not plan my pieces in advance. They flow freely in each moment of creation.
Sometimes they are completed at once, sometimes they take time to ripen and are
finished when their time has come.
May my creations be invitations for you to pause, to experience, and to see something
familiar in a new light. May they be like portals and bridges into your own inner worlds, into
Life’s Source. May they offer a restful space in which to linger, awaken moments of
recognition, and bring beauty, peace, and insight into ourselves and into the wondrous
tapestry of Life as a whole.
If you follow my social media channels, you will be among the first to know what is in the
making and when the creations are ready to be released from my hands into the world.
“What does it feel like when light touches,
when the cells open to receive, brighten, become whole?
When the life force flows pure,
glaciers melt, rivers grow clear?
Could I allow myself to renew, to let the fragile parts be restored,
the dams collapse and simply let everything be washed away?
The sun is shining.
Hands open.
And the sky dances with me.
I am alive. I bear witness to the beauty of Life.”
