My artistic practice explores issues concerning identity, anxiety, sexuality and femininity through the use of fiber, sculpture and collage. By utilizing traditional techniques and unconventional materials I examine my connection to the natural world and also my experience in it. I employ my history in science to inform my work, harnessing scientific ideas to draw connections to my experiences.
