For me art making and life seem to go hand-in-hand, there is less definition between making things and going about my daily life. 

I made a homemade loom that hung from my kitchen counter for about two months.  I wove in the mornings when it was quiet and my mind was clear, at night when I could not sleep, and in the evenings as an escape from the day.  “This is Not How You Thought it Would Be” is a 20’ X 3’ plastic weaving, which lays on the floor in the gallery.   It is a record of what went on during those two months.

Aki Shibata performed with the weaving by rolling herself up, while I played silverware on the floor.  Aki made her own contribution to the piece and added to the history while she bound herself and unbound herself.
