The ethnic diversity and urban rhythms of the Lower East Side inspired me the interest in different media, images, and techniques in collage, painting that </div> <div> explore form, movement, and conflict, in an array of lush colours and flirtatious shapes. </div> <bR> <div> My work have a distinctively Feminine feel but it is the struggle between movement and stasis and textures that is perhaps the most prominent theme. My art is a celebration of life in all its uncertainty and an affirmation of the irony of circumstance.</div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></div> <bR> </td> <td valign="top" width=100 BGCOLOR="#660033" TEXT="#F7F7FF"> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
