"As both a visual artist and dancer I have always been interested in movement and human gesture. In both areas I explore the breath that is the foundation of movement. I continue to explore new ways of expressing this throughout my work.

"The relationship of color and fluid motion interests me. In my work I focus on pathways that occur in motion and gesture. I use materials such as glass and metal that were once liquid.

"The colors present in these materials have intrinsic qualities that evoke human response, often suggesting a place or experience. I shape and combine these materials to emphasize particular elements of motion such as rhythm, contraction, release, pulsation, and flow and put them in architectural and sculptural frameworks."
