I am an Activist artist, presently artist-in-residence at Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve. I am grounded in earlier performance aesthetics, including work about rape, domestic violence and child abuse. The work has been exhibited, collected and written about nationally and in group exhibitions internationally since the late sixties.

In Ghost Nets 1991-2000, my focus includes the fishing industry and wetlands reclamation. Lost drift nets, called ghost nets, invisible and indestructible, stripmine the sea. I claimed them as a metaphor for how familiar habits and routines are often as deadly a trap as these nets.

Ghost Nets includes the restoration of a series of wetlands systems, culminating with bioengineering a 1/3 acre salt marsh. The completed system re-creates linkage in a Class A Migratory Bird Fly Zone. The site is marked by granite "lines of dialogue," where two habitats create edging. These created rock formations are markers for collecting scientific data. Residual artifacts cross several disciplines including painting, film and collaboration.
