Attraction, 12”X12”, 2011, Encaustic on panel.
From the experience, I
developed a close relationship
with three artists working in other
media. We’re currently exploring
identity issues through another
series of exhibitions and public
programs, “Creation/Migration:
Stories of the Journey” We’ve all
had our DNA analyzed through
National Geographic’s “Genographic”
project. We now know
the migration routes our distant
ancestors took out of Africa
and are further researching our
respective genealogies. We’re
interested in the places myth and
science intersect: do our DNA
results contradict what we have
believed about who we are? My
work for this project is based
on my paternal grandparents’
diaries and love letters, which
are more than 100 years old.
They are a fascinating window
to life in Baltimore and New York
City in the early 1900s. The work
will include encaustic, collage,
acrylic and giclée. The journey
continues.
