One feature of these works that is important to consider is her choice of materials: namely, junk mail, and reclaimed wood, which she either uses “as is” or manipulates, with the addition of other detritus, into homemade paper. The tangible results of this study will be revealed over the course of years, in a variety of projects. Appalled by mass deforestation and habitat destruction, she has turned her attention to bird species that have gone extinct since the time of her own birth. Her recent work has also considered the impact of human consumption and climate change on the natural world. By taking organic materials (or at least their representation) out of context, she compels the viewer to revel in patterns of structural unity. Her approach has often been guided by a fascination with form and shape, particularly as nodes for connecting unlikely allies, such as coral and cacti.
