"A series of small, dense objects suggesting ancient shrines, fetishes or potent magical devices that grew out of a thousand casual epiphanies:  mica scooped up from the earth on mountain hikes, the discovery of Mexican retablos painting, reoccurring nightmares, outdoor shrines discovered on her many travels.  Although the work seems other worldly, their content is remarkably tied to the here and now : they are essentially reflections of the artist's own experiences -personal political, internal, external."
