My artistic development has involved a great variety of subjects and media, at first emphasizing drawing and painting, and currently working in sculpture and installation. The source and impulse for my work is autobiographical and is embedded with specific gender and cross-cultural issues that I reframe within the larger context of my aesthetic and intellectual concerns. My current work addresses the notions of identity, sexuality, and language. I use my artwork as a vehicle for exploration, as a tool to encompass art and life, and as a mirror where unexpected connections and relationships can arise. Through multimedia approaches, I attempt to dismantle the concept of ‘vision’ as privileged site and to expand it into a realm that stimulates our sense and invites participation. As an artist, I strive to develop a dialogue with my work that goes beyond the boundaries of traditional practices and continues challenging my own conviction.
