What happens when destiny is interrupted by choice? Free Will in Action is a bold abstract figurative work born from an act of artistic rebellion. Originally depicting the Three Fates—the mythological sisters who spin, measure, and cut the thread of every human life—the painting was dramatically transformed when a bucket of white paint was poured across its surface during the opening of a solo art exhibit in New Orleans in 2007. In a single, irreversible gesture, fate itself was obscured, rewritten, and challenged. The cascading white paint is both destruction and creation. It conceals predetermined narratives while revealing unexpected forms, reminding us that life is shaped not only by the circumstances we inherit but by the choices we dare to make. The hidden figures of the Fates remain beneath the surface, suggesting that destiny may always be present, yet never beyond question. Rich in texture, movement, and symbolism, this artwork invites viewers to contemplate the enduring dialogue between fate and free will. Is our path already written, or do our actions continually rewrite the story?

Ecofeminist paintings of the unseen threads between consciousness and Earth.
My work moves between two interwoven themes: the spiritual exploration of human existence through a mythical lens, and an ecofeminist, socio-political response to the environmental and systemic violence shaping our world today. My ongoing Goddess Portrait series is rooted in archetype and different goddess mythologies around the world where I seek to reveal the hidden layers of identity, resilience, and consciousness, elevating real women into divine portals of divine power manifested in human form. These works honor the sacred within the mundane, bridging personal history with collective memory through ancient symbolic language. Parallel to this, my practice also confronts the trauma inherent in our current ecological and social systems. In these other works, I tend to use discarded materials, found objects, and fragmented imagery in order to address the pressures of capitalism, environmental degradation experienced by different communities and the emotional and spiritual costs of a world which is out of balance. My practice rejects the confinement of a singular style or market-based expectation. Together, these two strands of artistic exploration form a single inquiry: how do we thrive, transmute, and create meaning in the midst of our perpetually changing world? I seek to give voice to my curiosity, my intuition, and my sense of adventure—honoring art as a living, evolving dialogue between self, society, and the unseen forces that shape us all.
