Warrior Woman II

High fired clay with oxides and glazes mounted on recycled steel and cement base.

Experimenting with a high grog terra cotta sculpture clay and the relationships between the head and base, this warrior woman becomes totemic.

No matter what the medium, my art has always been figurative; addressing issues I have been personally passionate about and created to inspire the viewer to react.
After 911 my work changed. A series of battered but strong and defiant characters developed and it took 5 years for me to realize that September 11th was the catalyst.
