My work combines traditional embroidery and quilting techniques of West Europe with such diverse visual vocabularies as the fiberart traditions of East Europe and East Asia and the repetitive linearity of topographic and soil formations. Recent themes in my work have included the Roma Rights movement and the construction of identity.
