Artist & Researcher
I begin creating from an emotion, an insight, a color or a material — and from there I flow toward wherever the work takes me.
Painting, textile, collage, assemblage and mosaic meet in my work in layers of color and material, joining and unraveling, building and taking apart.

Serious Leisure
Research turned into practice
I am a sociologist with a Ph.D., and I study the meaning of leisure culture. My move from academia to art-making is a living example of “serious leisure” — the very subject I have written books and articles about.
