Boundaries teem with possibility. Between art and writing, history and current events, personal memory and inherited memory, bread and salt, mask and face.

Events considered history define the future. History is not a book to read, it is everyday.

I am afraid everyday, yet everyday I rise, and everyday I think about banal things such as a dry patch on my leg needing lotion, and whether I will rake the leaves today, and how I should eat more vegetables, and where to buy new pajamas, and everyday I think about relatives murdered in the Holocaust, and strangers stripped and gassed, and my grandparents fighting as Partisans, and thousands of dead children in Syria, and raped women in Darfur, and everyday I hover within the grey of these boundaries and try and try and try.

From a re-imagined Kermit to a thrift shop deer covered in glitter, I augment, manipulate and multiply these images to create symbols and metaphors of sexuality, hybridity, otherness, and sameness. In a more human form, Kermit becomes ambiguous, allowing me to blur the lines of race, gender, and sexuality.
