Hybridation et simplicité. J'aime tout simplement!
Hybridization and simplicity. I like quite simply!

"I am quite intrigued by the notion of hybridization; the fusing of elements that may at first glance appear to be unrelated. I also am drawn to found objects – altering them conceptually so that their meanings and original uses or intents are re-purposed. I like when “wrong” things are fused together i.e.: tanks made of bright pink felt, sewing onto paper, coagulant herbs or hunted animals on rifle targets, sewing with out thread (the act of mending with out its mending capabilities), the back side of embroidery shown as the front, flowered tanks “fighting” cute clouds or other things in nature.
