Artist's Statement
This piece holds itself together for public presentation even though for myself it is very personal. Connecting new and recycled works, the installed drawings are a reflection of my observations, which evolve from the routines of daily life and actions. It suggests that the idea of completeness of the body is not necessary in this case or at this moment.
