Artist Statement
This collection for “Imagining Your Dreams” is about
experiencing dreams as snippets of a whole. Dreams frequently seem like fully
formed stories, but upon waking they disintegrate into partially-remembered
pieces. I often dream of childhood, long-departed family members, and places in
the distant past. These collages attempt to replicate that fragmented feeling.
