CURRENT WORKS
the heart of the matter
Returning to my interest in the heart, I am exploring the heart and the biomedical devices that regulate its beats. With collaboration from a cardiologist, I am creating works which incorporate biomedical devices that have been used to diagnose/remediate/influence the heart's rhythm.
spirit and matter coexist
Related to an artist residency in Assisi, Italy, I created a facsimile of an alb, a liturgical garment that St Clare had made in the 13th century. I also did a photographiic/textile project that addresses the historical and contemporary nature of Assisi, as well as the sacred and the secular.
body and world in the artist's studio
​
My body is made of the same flesh as the world...and moreover this flesh of my body is shared with the world, the world reflects it, encroaches upon it and it encroaches upon the world. Maurice Merleau-Ponty, The Visible and the Invisible, 1968
a tale of transformation​
Since ancient times, humans have yearned to become birds, leaving the constraints of gravity to fly free. In this series, birds act as metaphors for the human longing to touch the mystery beyond the material world and to explore the liminal space between heaven and earth.
