My work continues to evolve, and over the last several years I have been exploring the collection of stories from the public, and sometimes asking them to actively participate in the creation of the final work.  The direct contact with the individual, hearing their voice, watching them formulate and write their thoughts, seeing them ransack their personal memories and histories is not only a lively and intimate moment but can also be vibrant and emotional.  I want to convey the atmosphere of this moment in my work with the juxtaposition of form, pattern and sound.   It is my hope, that the commonality of experience and one’s identity in globalized compound culture will be realized by the viewer.
