Poem Teller: a beaded and sequined oracle speaks poems from a painting.   2013, 34″ x52″, beads, sequins, acrylic, iPod/video.  Poem Teller (6 minute excerpt)

I am painting with beads and sequins. By embedding video in my beaded work- the two forms each tell their own story, being both still and moving, decorative and technological.  Video pixels and beads are not so different; each building a matrix of color and light.  In these works, both stories are interwoven, creating a synthesis.
