Metalsmith
When asked to define myself, I most often reply metalsmith . For me, there is emotional excitement associated with materials. The expected application of steel as a macho structural material inspires me to rebel against that expectation to create forms and surfaces from steel and other metals that are personal, feminine, soft, tactile. I want to do what I m not supposed to do. Steelworkers are supposed to be big, smelly men; strength comes to me from doing what is not expected from a small woman.
My work is composed of familiar forms used again and again--constant repositioning is fascinating research. The use of line is instinctive; it permeates both my drawings and my metalwork; it shows me where to go. A tool, kitchen utensil, furniture or lamp --the every day object is transformed through my labor--it will serve its function but is exquisitely unusual in form or surface.
