She received the Caroline Durieux Scholarship at Louisiana State University and the Ann Collier Award while a high school senior in Baton Rouge. Statement My recent work has been concerned with the amphibious methods practiced by humans. Particularly the transformation we must undergo and tools we must use to exist and travel underwater. Early diving suits are a major influence. Underwater conditions and their effects on the human body are one concept.
Perception is also a main concept, especially how it changes above and blow the water s surface.
My work consists of large drawings and three-dimensional suits made of thin translucent paper. The properties of water are echoed by the fluidity of the paper and theatrical lighting. With this work I want to set a scene and create an environment. The gallery is wheelchair accessible. All events are free and open to the public.
