Homage to Georgia
Mixed Media

Artist Statement
“Homage to Georgia” grows out of a seductive fixation on women artists whose lives were muted by the hegemony of their male dominated world. Through a relationship of biographical and visual dialogue, a maternal meta-narrative is conceived. New synergies are crafted from both opaque and transparent structures through expressive layers of drawing, painting and photo-montage.

I hold an MFA in Visual Art, from the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University. Working with mixed media redefines pre-conceived connotations of what a painting or collage might be. The conception through a hybrid of material, metaphor and the figurative subject envelop an unwritten life-story.
