Creating worlds in miniature has always fascinated me. It is not only the investigation that truly excites me, but contruction as well. To mend, piece together, patch, cobble, cure, cultivate where nothing was before is an integral part of my process. I create landscapes by collaging together anything that catches my attention or falls in my path from bits of paper found on the street to thread to leftover teas leaves.

The environments I produce are based upon several influences: my experiences in therapy, the process of Carl Jung’s Sand Tray therapy, the philosophical systems of Samkhya and the eight limbs of yoga . Removing myself from my current environment to enter a space where I have complete power gives me sincere satisfaction and comfort.
