WORKS IN PROGRESS, at SGF Studios, CARRARA, ITALY each 1.7 meters high, carved of Italian Bardiglio Marble

About the Artist
I am an artist dealing with personal, social and political themes.  I carve stone because I feel it is the least artificial of art forms and the most enduring to our humanity.  While classical imagery of the figure is predominantly from a male perspective, my work is often that of a woman carving the story of woman in the first person.  Much of my figurative sculpture focuses on an unapologetic pose, front on and present, a portrait of woman as participant in the viewing of herself.

Instead of trying to carve figures and images -- whether realistic or abstract, I try to carve what it feels like to be human, to convey the unspoken emotions of our being here, to create an image of the intangible.
