Anxiety Quilts

Beginning with a solid, architectural structure of black and white diagonals, I cut apart and manipulate the blocks. The cut-up bits and pieces usually swept off the floor and discarded are rescued and added as surface embellishment.
These bits and pieces add a sense of frenetic energy, or anxiety, to express an aspect of emotion - our "inner architecture." 
Sometimes, the bits and pieces are layered very heavily to express the idea of loss; the loss of memory, civility, or history. The underlying structure remains, but accretion obscures and changes it.
