The question that spurs my work is: Why is a woman’s passion so threatening? At the heart of anything I create, in ways obvious and not so obvious, is my effort to come to terms with my own hungers, my own aliveness. Through my art and poetry I aim to ignite in others their own sense of the complex nature of living wide open, which, oddly, has very little to do with sexuality, but everything to do with true eroticism.
