1997 Bessie Berman Award

I am concerned with expressing interconnections - interconnectiveness and continuum. My work has been combining natural materials with synthetics, relating opposites, randomness and order - dark, light, reflective, opaque, illumination to dematerialization, exploring cosmic energy fields. I have been knotting clear monofilament, a man-made fiber that transmits light, combining it with natural linen, opaque and light absorbent, incorporating gold leaf, reflective and alchemically symbolic - unifying them in a variety of densities, scale and configurations. Monofilament is a flexible medium - moves with air currents - changes with various lighting, natural, seasonal and artificial. I am interested in kinetics - dynamic pattern/resultant forms in space-time.
