ARTIST STATEMENT: Eyes detect, reflect, and cause connect
Vintage flashcube memories are the origin of my optical intrigue.
My art incorporates Vintage stamps, jewelry, antique book pages, Vintage ads, and Vintage rotary telephones.
Technology connect-disconnect is the driving force for the Art of Telephone series titled #eyepreferthevoice
The dreamgoal to artfully transmit and receive peace and nostalgia.
Theraputic Rotary Dial will  bring a treasured memory or a dream.
May my art cause authentic conversation and joyfulness
