This third edition of Windows includes two series of works created between 2013 and 2015, Windows and Patchwork City. The focus of both is windows in their various permutations. The metaphorical implications of the subject are not lost on this artist. From Renaissance painting to cinema and cyberspace, the window has always been perceived as a mediator between spaces. Windows are the visual bridge between inside and out. Though transparent, the window may serve as the barrier or the link between the viewer and the world outside. To those outside, it may reflect the world, or provide one with a glimpse of the inside. To those inside, it may shield one from the reality outside or offer a connection to it. The hand quilting that animates the surface in the Windows series serves as my proxy, through whose experience the subject is filtered. The Patchwork City fabric collages reflect the vitality of the ever changing urban landscape in which these windows exist. Much as Edward Hopper had done in the last century, I synthesize and transform the facts of the material world to reflect my own experience of a particular place.
