My work stems from a lifelong interest in the design and construction of costumes and clothing, which ultimately led to sculpture. Focusing on women's undergarments and shoes, I have combined these disciplines using metal fabrics and sheet metal to convey the changed attitudes and styles which have mirrored our culture, past and present.
Throughout history, women have been influenced by trends in fashion, often discounting comfort and health issues. Some of my work addresses issues concerning bound torsos and cramped feet in shoes of exaggerated styles.
