Here again, dazzling colors activate the relationship between man, cities, nature and symbols. Whimsical violet pyramids and middle-eastern architecture suggest cities in the sand. Surrounding shapes, set within fields of orange, red and yellow, evoke a pulsating energy. The influence of Tibetan tanka paintings and their penchant for borders is reflected in Sailing Around the Horn . Created with ink dyes on canvas and silk, fanciful depictions are set within borders of yellow, aqua and deep turquoise.
Sculptures also show a propensity for hybrids.
In the 1992 bronze, The Woman Who Waits by the Sea , Pre-Columbian and Asian influences appear prominently. A stylized woman stands upon a dog-like figure. Both are etched with a sundry amount of designs and figures. But her amalgamation of images can extend the imagination of the spectator. Enigmatic forms rooted in ambiguous space give the illusion of dream metaphors.
