ARTIST STATEMENT

​

I am an American-Norwegian artist exploring notions of lineage, belonging, and home. Employing a wide range of materials including fibers, encaustics, and found objects, I raise questions of the intersections between gender, labor, the domestic, and intergenerational connection.
