“Reinvention and the element of surprise are essential to my practice. Art and life are obviously intertwined; a lot of the time I am using leftover material or tools from household projects in my work. Connecting with familiar places or objects and working to find their heart is at the core; having been born and raised in Western Massachusetts, I need to slip into each dimension of this place for renewal.
