Artist Statement 

"Sometimes the most exciting discoveries lie between ‘far’ and ‘too far’—in the threshold between distorted content and content that is destroyed beyond all recognition."

Artist Statement 

"The Apollonian and Dionysian conflict of Nietzsche's fame is a reasonable way to frame my current work. If one does not easily tolerate Nietzsche, the koan “Boy Meets Girl…” or Siddhartha by Herman Hesse are other recommended starting places."

Artist Statement 

"My work balances on the thread-thin line between art and craft -- that seam line that holds our desires together rather than a space where hierarchy within expression feels necessary. Quilts are, to me, often a physical manifestation of our desire for order and repetition. My work often lives within the tension of our reach for perfection within human manual imprecision and embraces the beauty in letting go of our preconceived notions of perfection.  

Artist Statement 

"This image titled ‘Death’ is a lumen photogram. It is a scanned photogram of a dead leaf of cabbage exposed by the sun on a piece of photographic paper. It is a commentary on the pandemic and what climate change is doing to the planet."

“As an artist I have always felt my task is not to create meaning, but to charge the air so that meaning can occur.” – Todd Hido

Artist Statement

"As a studio artist, woodworker, and native ��������an, I am working to add my voice to the rich vocabulary of the South through measured craft and familiar form. I aim to emulate great southern literature employing metaphor and symbolism to create exceedingly simple, stark reflections of agrarian landscapes that are simultaneously haunting and sublime."
