COLLAGE
I’ve written five books on ancient Goddess art, images and myth. During the pandemic I began a series of collages weaving these timeless representations with contemporary text and vibrant fragments from magazines and pop culture ephemera. By juxtaposing these seemingly disparate elements, I aim to create a dialogue between the ancient and the modern, bridging the gap between past and present. Through this fusion, I seek to challenge conventional notions of time and identity, inviting viewers to reconsider the fluidity of herstory and the enduring relevance of mythological archetypes. Each collage serves as a visual narrative, inviting viewers to explore the layers of symbolism and meaning embedded within.
My work is a celebration of the divine feminine in all her many forms, honoring the wisdom and power of women throughout the ages while inviting reflection on the evolving roles and representations of being female in contemporary society. Through the act of collaging, I aim to evoke a sense of resonance and connection of the eternal dance between tradition and innovation, myth and reality. I think of these collages as “Flash Cards.” Timeless reminders of the importance of remembering our worth as women.
