My work addresses dichotomy in that it is divided into two parts. In essence I am working on two bodies of work in parallel and my dilemma is how I can combine the two into a  cohesive body of work?

I  continually live between order and chaos. My work expresses that conflict with opposing forces - light/dark, order /chaos, masculine / feminine,  natural / manmade.

After decades of teaching children and practice using natrural materials and craft skill Iwent back 40 years to the wrting and works of William Morris and other practicioners of Process Art and Antiform Sculpture - Eva Hesse, Claus Oldenberg, Joseph Beuys, and Louise Bougeouis. I’ve taken myself out of my comfort zone and used industrial carpet and underlay. 

Starting with a flat rectangle I make expanded cuts and hang the pieces from one or several points.

The materials,  the processes, the effects of gravity, and an element of chance will play apart in the final composition of my work.
