From an early age I can remember my
mom taking me to an art class at the MOMA, where I glued blocks to paper and
painted them...
I enjoyed that day, the train ride
from Queens, the underground tunnels passing stops then coming to the 5th
Avenue train stop…..Aah! The smell of the city!
Fast forward...my schooling, High
School of Music and Art (1977-80) major Art and Architecture…Pratt Institute(1980-85)…majored
and graduated B.A. Architecture…
Attending various art classes
throughout the city including Dieu Donne, paper making, bringing me to this
chapter in my life…..my art……the combination of architecture, buildings,
structure, doors, design, paper, collage, history and politics…..forming reflective pieces
of work that evoke the senses.
The Brownstone Zone awakens history past and present.
