 THE SEASON SERIES

Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring .... the seasons become metaphors
for our lives and the passage of time. This four-season installation
asks us to question our approach to this phenomenon. Do we
endlessly attempt to control these transitions or do we rejoice in
the variation that change brings to our lives? Employing used
clothing and natural materials, these pieces conjure up the memories and ever-present cycles that constitute the human condition.
