Artist Statement
I’m making work about my relationship to my son while navigating my internal world of habit loops and anxiety: a modern mother. Trapped in my pictures is the information I absorb by staying abreast to news and culture, while struggling with the confinements of domesticity. My series of wall-size collages, built from inkjet paper and matte medium, appear as chaotic patchwork-like-rugs. The saturated inkjet prints used to construct the collages are of digital drawings I make from photographs of my son and I together. Embedded in the work is both my hand and the technologies of my time. The compressed pictorial composition, reaching total abstraction, and the over-saturated color, are meant to elicit the visceral emotionality of the bond between mother and child.
