The roots of her practice lie in storytelling. These stories find their origin in her personal life but also popular culture, art history, books, something she overheard in the grocery line or a dead pigeon tossed on the side. Different elements are harvested from this library of peculiar findings to express a story she wants to tell. During the painting process, the goal for the painting is to become its own language. Boldly gestured or like a silent mousetrap. It does not need to explain itself: the ambiguity prevails.
