Since 2022, I have been wrapping my canvas paintings around conical forms and arranging them in hourglass-shaped configurations in order to support my exploration of communication with the non-physical. My most recent sculptures are more lyrical in shape and continue this conversation about the meeting place between two parts: parts of myself, me and the other, or celestial vs. terrestrial.

My recent hourglass installation called “Meeting Place", balances a star from the Milky Way on top of the Sun, tying the two parts at their points. In these pieces, the sky and the Earth communicate with each other with the stars as navigational guides and waterways as passage. They reflect imagery found on the San Juan Islands. These pieces are about the electric energy between the meeting of two cones: the upper cone as infinity, while the lower cone receives and reflects the infinite in continuous conversation. These pieces are coming from an internal place, as I stand in awe of all that is and the relationship between the above and the below

These sculptures will be at the San Juan Island Museum of Art, March 6th - June 2nd, 2025
