In PASSAGE, kayak and umiak forms depict adaptation; reveal the bones of our experience and the flotsam we gather along the way.  Accompanying works on paper and canvas create a landscape of hope. This work is a call to explore the metaphor of transformation in times of life changes.

I am excited to share this work at Xchanges Gallery and Artist-run-centre in this solo exhibition. The work represents my own transformation from a lengthy career as a professional working potter to painter. The sculptural forms are the last works I made in clay and the drawings and paintings are current explorations of the ongoing transition.
