About The Artwork

This piece is part of a collaboration with a poet friend as we tackle the idea of lamenting in current times. It explores how we as a culture don't make time for negative feelings to do their work in us. Instead, we move quickly past them, trying to be in a perpetual state of happiness, which of course is ludicrous. Key phrases from some of these poems are incorporated into the artwork via dry transfer lettering, which were used in advertising layouts pre-Macintosh computer. This is a piece designed to draw the viewer in and have them consider how they might be able to identify and properly process their negative feelings, to not ignore them.

I create works in collage by hand from my Dallas studio, utilizing ephemera from old magazines, books, manuals, and photos as well as documents from my late aunt's south Louisiana insurance agency. The eclectic nature of old books, brochures, images and documents that reveal the passage of time, help to inform my work. These bits and pieces that have been stuck in the dark, aging on shelves and collecting dust, are uncovered and combined, giving them new life. With them I create works that travel through decades past, present and future. This handmade, layered time travel serves as a central theme in my work. I meticulously create my art using cut and glued bits of paper to construct a new reality.
