My work deals with otherworldly senses. I have been focusing over the
past year on the influence of working with pediatric cancer patients. "Kwanisha"
is about a 13 year-old girl who died from cancer during the time that I
was working with her about once a week making art together. This piece deals
with the transcendence of Kwanisha from this world into another. She had
a beautiful spirit. Throughout the process of making this piece, and two
others focusing on Kwanisha, I really developed a method of healing. It
was an almost meditative way to say goodbye. In this way, my own art reflects
and supports the ideas of arts in medicine for myself, and I hope for those
patients that I work with as well. |
