Who Am I? (1994-2013)

Who Am I?” - an exploration of self. 
The exhibit is anchored by the group of nine – a series of mandalas executed by the artist in the 1990’s as an exercise in discovery.  
Carl Gustav Jung purported the mandala or circle to be a symbol representing the total personality or Self.  The artist has built on this idea by using the circle as a means of pushing the expression and exploration of Self; inner conflicts and questions; to solidify a hypothesis of Self and the sum of who she felt to be at the time.
This group of nine has not previously been displayed as a unit to the public.

Who I Am is a theme frequently revisited by the artist. 
As a means of exploring struggles with identity, self-worth and sense of relevance in the world.
Is Anyone Listening?  Am I Heard?
