Power, Privilege and Identity
I identify with the powers Nature gives us and our interdependence with Nature. Recently my work “Cascade” was printed on a banner for an exhibit surrounding Coffey Park in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The theme of the exhibit was “Power, Privilege and Identity” which fits the diversity of people who live there.
In my work, her tattooed snake is a symbol of transformation and renewal. Her cascading roots are like the roots of the trees surrounding her in the park. They speak of our needs for stability, home and nourishment that should be available to all people.
My other banner is titled “Breath”. This work is about our interdependence on trees for the oxygen we breathe. This work is also on my website under “ECO FEMINISM”.
Two of the sponsors for this exhibit are Red Hook Art Project and Arts Gowanus.
