About Me

Weaving and Painting

My work is process driven. I rip salvaged fabric into strips and give them new life by weaving them into a canvas that is then painted to accentuate texture and luminosity.  My woven paintings are abstract and invite the viewer to interpret it from their own experience, while being rooted in the landscape of North Carolina, my Jewish heritage and faith. I was raised in Winston-Salem, NC and went on to the Interlochen Arts Academy where I learned to handweave.  At Rhode Island School of Design I began a degree in textile design that I completed at Shenkar College in Ramat Gan, Israel. I continued my education at North Carolina State University where I received a Masters in Art and Design. I currently live in Raleigh and work from my studio and gallery downtown in Artspace. My work is in private and corporate collections across the United States including The Weld Apartments in Raleigh. It has been exhibited throughout the Southeast including Artfields and the NCMA Special Exhibition Gift Shop.
