Artist's statement

My work stems from a lifelong interest in the design and construction of costumes and clothing which ultimately led to sculpture. Focusing on women's undergarments, I have combined these disciplines using metal fabrics to convey attitudes and styles that have mirrored our culture past and present. Some of the metal fabrics I work with are aluminum, copper and stainless steel screening; woven metal mesh; and crocheted wire of copper, brass or steel. "Red Camisole" is made of crocheted copper wire.
