ARTIST STATEMENT

My career as a psychotherapist and commitment to engaging the personal unconscious has fully influenced my work as an artist.  I am uncovering shadow imagery, exploring domesticity and ritual in relationship to the unconscious.  The assemblage process I use incorporates clay, found objects, fabric and most recently actual doll parts.  The crudeness of my work accurately expresses for me the essentialness of the psyche’s primary process, as well as its ancestral/familial rudiments.  These constructs, which lay beneath it all, are influencing my every move.
