ARTIST’S STATEMENT:

My search for beauty manifests into forms that abstract femininity and vitality.Reshaping the body demonstrating with a curiosity about science, medicine and the search for human perfection. My sculptures are hybrids, often morphing flowers with figurative elements. The human body is displaced retaining ranges of recognizable features combined with botanical design and a sincere desire to spark dialogue and humanistic respect for all.”
