“Nevertheless she persisted.”

​

As a Feminist artist I explore the conundrum of being a woman in America. Every time a woman lays out her thinking and expresses her experience, it gets us all further along.  Art can help you put your finger on what you need. Some of my work, like “Necessary Tattoos” and the “Fight On!” series, offers inspiration for finding a way out of the bind that patriarchal gender dynamics places us in. Others pieces, like “Lace Constraints” and the “MythicMeToo” series express the complexity of the feminine disguises promulgated by culture.
