Very recently my experimental mind started playing with the possibilities of adding fabrics and recycled accessories to my found object sculptures. So along with all the cardboard and found metal objects to collect, I am now adding belts, ties and scarves to the mix. I love the juxtaposition of incongruent materials and color.

Since I had a few armatures already made and waiting for the perfect endings, I began playing with my newfound treasures. Color is ever important in my work , so weaving color into these sculptures was essential.

One of these recent sculptures was juried into the Through the Eye of the Needle exhibition at Hudson Valley MOCA in Peekskill NY. This is the third annual juried exhibition in this exciting venue and I was honored to be chosen to participate. Peekskill is a very artsy community about an hour north of New York City.
