I don’t consider myself an image-maker. The images come about as process. Take the collaged images for instance: they are not collages, but snapshots of what was momentarily a collage.

Self-portraiture (though I’m not very comfortable with that designation) has been a constant touchstone for me. I use it to locate who I remember myself to be and witness how I adapt to new circumstances and lives by twisting this concept of who I am into them. I'm reminded that even who I believe myself to be distorts, and changes over time. It grew out from my experience as a professional art model, in which I understood that my image, my visage, was only what the artist saw. The output from my work giving my visual and physical self to artists was ultimately a version of themselves — nothing about me could be taken for granted in that process. And, so, when I use myself and my body in my artwork, I am thinking of that much the same way. I am ephemeral, eternal, there and not, changeable, malleable, and myself because/when I say so.
