Please visit Gallery 34 to see my exhibition “Poetic Paintings and Prints” in Brattleboro, Vermont! These paintings and monotype prints feature inspired mark-making artworks from my travels around the world, especially in India and the USA. For the past few years, I have been developing a group of paintings entitled ”The Transparency Series”. There are several sources of inspiration underlying this work that touch upon issues of politics and feminism. First, I make use of a sense of relativism that calls into question the idea of a fixed center, political or otherwise. Second, I celebrate the power of women to control their interactions within their social environment through their use of fabric on their bodies. Third, I draw on ideas of the role of fabric in protecting and healing, inspired by important women in my life.

My monotype prints, in contrast, celebrate mark-making by employing everyday textures in unusual ways. I delight in entering the print studio with only a few ideas: the color range I want to use, and what type of ”flow” I will incorporate into the piece. Usually, I don’t have a concrete idea about what I’ll be doing and what marks I will be making, but I am very confident that I will be happy with the end result. Lately, I’ve been working with the idea of grid structures and absorbed blocks of color. These are spaces that I can really ”walk” into, and hope that others will find the same sense of joy and immersion that I feel as I am making them, and when I share them.
