My Personal Sculpture – Raw and Intimate

See current work-in-progress via Instagram

The #MeToo movement radically altered my life and my work; For the first time I began to create sculptures that told my own story. 

These sculptures are much rawer than my commissioned work, without  extraneous detail or polish. Tool marks, scars and even notations on the surface of the block are left visible – a record of the stone’s journey and the creative process.
Using the Direct Carving approach, I allow the material and tools to guide me to the final form, stopping as soon as emotion and story has been imbued. I’ve found that the more honestly I express myself, the more my work resonates with the experience of others.

I am an active champion of women’s rights and the #MeToo movement – through my sculpture and by speaking out on social media and television.
