Artist Statement

This body of work explores myths and perceptions of sexuality and the experience of a woman in the later half of life.

Many of the works have fragments included in the image of text from Marcia Woodruff poem, which is published in the book When I am Old I will Wear Purple.

"We are Real," you say, and so we are
Standing here in our simple flesh
Where on our complicated histories are written.
Our bodies turning into gifts
At the touch of our hands.

(Baby ,kiss, longing , Woman , Wooing the small prints can be included at the end of the grid and can be smaller.)
