Parkinson’s: The Unraveling of Life

“In this exhibition personal objects are combined to represent the disappearance and loss of a life partner. These artworks use a range of mediums to explore the experience of my husband’s deterioration. In our life together, we created art, we made memories, we integrated my Catholicism and his Buddhism, and we lost all of this to a devastating disease. This is not a linear story, but this series tells of trying to connect when true connection is impossible because one half of the whole is physically present but emotionally absent.”
