Two Continents: One Pacific
Handwoven
linen
Statement:
The intent of my work is to make visible a distilled,
intensified sense of the sacred—of reverence, dignity,
gratitude, hope and faith—in a world where these are easily
lost. It is my prayer, that thread by thread, I will share my
love of God in a way that is accessible, without
boundaries—for me, this is the beauty of total abstraction.
Two Continents: One Pacific —looking across the Pacific
from our separate shores, we see our immutable unity—many
prayers, one Peace.
