I have a series that speaks to the importance of flowers and pollinators that provide for the existence of life. I use damaged and discarded vinyl records along with repurposed communications wire. These materials can take thousands of years to decompose in a landfill. Using unconventional materials requires the creation of new techniques. I enjoy this challenge and find it rewarding when the underlying message is realized through my art. Along the way, I’ve come to understand that a unique medium can provide a new learning experience unveiling something extraordinary. I’m committed to creating art that has a lasting impression, expands the boundaries of creativity and simply brings joy.
Materials: repurposed viny records, repurposed communication wire.
