“Lettuce is a sculptural installation of heirloom lettuce grown by the artist. During the opening the lettuce will be harvested, tossed into salad, and shared."

"I have created a mixed media presentation using fabric and collage. Collateral Damage
represents the rising number of deaths due to the Iraq war — the more than 50,000
recorded deaths resulting directly from the violence — as well as the indirect, and
often unreported deaths. The installation will create a space for mourning and
remembrance of the dead — Iraqi or American, combatant or civilian."

"I find it fascinating to create sculpture of various shapes using my body, water, and air movement. I enlarge my hair and torso, transforming it into vinyl tubing and latex work. By wearing the heavy and oversized sculptures, which make it hard for me to move, I portray the discomfort and displacement caused by them. My work provides a perspective on where we belong when daily life is overly saturated by artificial environments. The exhibition consists of photographic and video documentation of three sculpture works. "

"My two-screen video installation positions the viewer between
two walls. One wall features a melee of activity on a panoramic beach
facing the ocean. Seven women in their late twenties to early thirties
are involved in a gun fight wearing all sorts of modes of feminine dress:
high heels, dresses, bathing suits, skirts, and jeans. The "guns" are
carved out of pink polystyrene and are not precise depictions of a revolver,
a 9mm, or a rifle. The second wall features the same seven women facing
away from the viewer watching the footage from the first wall on a TV screen.
The guns are spread throughout the installation space and travel with each
participant during the opening and exhibition. Viewers are encouraged to
play with the guns."

"I concentrate on painting and sculpture in most of my recent works. The paintings are American landscapes in mixed Western and Eastern styles, accented by teddy bears. Reflecting my view as a foreigner, these painting speak of the social relationship in our multi-cultural, multi-racial landscape. The sculpture is a 3D installation of a miniaturized landscape on a wooden table.
I use teddy bears as a metaphor in my art because of my dream-like childhood memories of living in the USA for one year. As a result, teddy bears personify my childhood icons and fantasies. I wish to extract and illustrate my stories and messages.
I also make miniatures of ‘made in USA’ cookie wrappers. Like teddy bears, these small objects are metaphors for both immigration and for the importation and exportation of mass produced goods. My art and the commercial items used to make it comment on colonialism, globalization, and American consumerism.
Despite the serious messages I like to express, I strongly believe that art can convey warm feelings and can even be humorous.

“A moment of bottomless despair Found me
Letting go of everything that tethered
Having to survive
Plunging
With arms outstretched
Mouth and I’s wide open
cells, molecules, and atoms,
quantum strings,
Breaking through to a NeuroMorphic
Universe.
Pieces of this NeuroMorphic Universe are
presented in this project,
Microscopic and Macroscopic simultaneously,
Mirroring layered complexity and an
interconnected consciousness.
Whimsical, Irrational, Playful
Medicis and Tomato Soup topple
Where the Child is a Warrior
In My NeuroMorphic Garden.”

"This body of work is comprised of oil on panel paintings that depict figures in
bed surrounded by the folds of well-worn sheets, blankets, and pillows."
