Combining a career of teaching art in the US and overseas, I received training in sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Torino, and subsequently earned a residency in Pietrasanta at the Sem Ghelardini Marble Laboratory. I was also awarded sculpture and photography residencies in the Burren, Ireland, the Instituto di Santa Reparata in Florence, Vermont Studio Center and the Master Workshop at Southampton College. Formal training in sculpture included MA and CAS from NYU. Further studies included Art Students League and New York Academy.

I exhibited widely in the U.S. and Europe, with my most recent acquisition now part of the Bronx River Art Center collection. Last summer I received a grant from the NYBG for my Art of the Table: Stories of the Food We Love installation. This Spring I exhibited my mixed media photography at the Gallery 505 BX April-June.

My work explores archeology as it suggests traces of previous life, and offers clues to the distant past. It is inspired by ancient and classical themes, using current methods and materials. There is a multiplanar reality, and a duality of time: past and present. Layers of fragmented, repeated images, transparencies of forms, and multifaceted colliding energies all contribute to a sense of time intersecting with space.
