Artist Statement
My work honors the sacredness of the human spirit. I work with images that illustrate the creative power of suffering and its magical ability to transform. One dominant series of my works, entitled self-portraits, uses images of strangers--often children and people of color, representing outsiders and the powerless--that have been cast off and later rescued. These images become unlikely icons speaking to us of our innocence, holiness, and preciousness. The tradition of icons is that they be used in prayer...praying with eyes open, allowing the sacred to enter our hearts. And we then enter another world.
