Passageway, 2015-2018
Canvas, Acrylic paint, 12k gold leaf, pigment ink, MP3 player, earphones


An arched enclave of canvas, light outside, dark inside, this piece is inspired by my near-death experience.

Typical of many NDEs, I passed through a dark tunnel into a bright light. Used as a metaphor for any life transition, the dark phase of insecurity and feeling off-balance, a normal and temporary moment we all pass through.  The onlooker is encouraged to sit and experience a guided meditation on breathing and letting go of what is finished and move on.

Habotai Silk, thread, mirrors, dye, film projection


A projection of faces, coming and going, filtered through layers of sewn and dyed fabric signifying the ever evolving psychological filters, interpretations, principles and assumptions that color our perceptions.
