Projects Worked On

I use art to help people tell their stories. I use story ropes, collage and story tags. Have done this in Nicaragua, Hungary, Cambodia and USA.
In Hungary, I taught visual art leaders at a week long summer camp.
Have used collage to illustrate Bible stories. Helped women share their stories from the Khimer Rouge time period. In Cambodia, I used story ropes with a group of pastors' wives at a pastors conference and story collage with children who have been rescued from the sex traffic industry.

Roles / Skill Sets

Follower of Jesus. Collage Artist
Using art as a bridge to share our stories, we can bring hurt, hardship, violation and suffering into the light. Through care, prayer, compassion and art-making, we can receive healing from some of the darker parts of our stories and remember some of the grace-filled moments as well.
