In many ways, “Mussels on Tray” reflects the “lightbulb moment” in the development of my art form. It signifies the point in time during which I realized that the assemblies I was making from collected seashells and marine-life specimens, could be conveyed in photographs – still life’s that took on an almost painterly quality, highlighting the rhythm and repeating patterns found in nature. They twist and turn, nestled in one another, reflecting the force of movement that brought them to the shore, not unlike the force of movement that brought me to the full-time pursuit of creative expression – losing my daughter 13 years ago, when she crossed the street for a school bus in Los Angeles.
