"My
work isn’t necessarily an exploration of the grotesque or
the sensual independently, but rather an examination of the marriage
between the two. The tension that I am specifically interested in
is the domestic woman vs. the woman of sexual desire or the conflict
between mother vs. mistress. The work isn’t necessarily taking
sides between the taboo or the ladylike but materializing the balance
for the viewer to decipher."
