My recent work in textiles owes a great deal to the history of quilt-making in women's lives.  I am making artwork that could not exist if quilts had not existed first.  Art that is derived from the decorative tradition- art that refers to craft- is making a transformative leap.

In many cultures, it is considered a breach of natural law to harm a person with whom one has broken bread. –Artist statement
