"My process of loom weaving follows a long-tended tradition, although my integration of metal wire pushes the customary limits of weaving. Manipulating the woven wire creates dynamic forms of undulating gestures and punctuated patterning that subvert weaving’s static templates. My work strikes a balance between textile and sculpture that explores a juxtaposition of comfort and complexity, fortitude and fragility."
