Unmentionables

"My work stems from a lifelong interest in the design and construction of costumes and clothing which ultimately led to sculpture.  In this exhibition of undergarments, I have combined these disciplines using metal fabrics to convey the changed attitudes and styles which have mirrored our culture over the last 100 years."
