Biography Living in Courtenay, mother of 2, wife of 1. Born in Victoria. Have lived in various, but always come back to the island. This is my climate. Graduated from SFU (BA Communication) in 2001, but now going for another degree. Because I haven't decided what to be when I grow up.
Artist Statement (of sorts) In my work I explore the relationship of self to space and place. Space is the mappable physical landscape with which we form spatial relationships. Place is the mental and emotional response to space, and is essential to our sense of belonging. In analyzing the self and this sense of belonging, I use an eclectic foundation that ranges from poetry to geography, from philosophy to neurology, from history to dream imagery. These eclectic sources reflect recurring human contradictions, such as rational and creative, static and dynamic, exile and home, foreboding and hope, private and public.
