Selected quotes from a talk given at her Brooklyn studio on 3-16-2008:

“My installations are ephemeral, so there is a certain sadness when they come down.”

“When I install in a new space it is easy to get intimidated.  The size, lighting, and architecture all have to be taken into consideration.  The installation process can sometimes be overwhelming, I take a couple of big breaths and start in a corner and eventual everything works out!”

“I always thought, ‘Why do painters have dibs on gestural abstraction?’”

“My life is about ambivalence and the spaces in-between.”

“I am concerned about narrative in installation and abstraction.”

“I think about things that collect in corners.”

Eigth floor Bronx rooftop access at dusk. Horizons give power to the soul in an urban environment dominated by vertical pillars of cement and corridors of exhaustion.

Harsh morning sun hits while waiting for the 8:30 Croton Harmon line to Marble hill at the 125th Street MetroNorth Train Station.
