- Notes:
"My painted book series expresses an attempt to reclaim the female's body and self-knowledge. It is an ideological stance that is imagined and gestured in the solitude of drawing, throught the weaving of images that narrate and textualize womanhood within the intimacy of the inked belly of printed books. By turning the pages, different aspects of women's lives are represented. I have seen a similarity between the intimacy of the house and the interior of the book--both are activated by characters and objects that give narrative potential to a given space. I have started to show woman as the source of narration and meaning and also tried to align my work with the desire for female emancipation."--Artist's statement, JAB 35, Page 2.
