Shadow Work captures the artists introspective relationship with her craft and identity. The silhouette, rendered in stark black against a multicolored background of green, brown, and gold, reflects her preference for working quietly behind the tufting frame rather than stepping into the spotlight. This shadowed figure symbolizes the comfort she finds in feeling unseen, a theme that resonates deeply with her life experiences.

The figures right hand forms a peace sign, a gesture made poignant by the artists recent amputation of her middle finger. The vibrant background, inspired by her love of nature and the tranquility of trees and wildlife, contrasts with the silhouette, reflecting the duality of her colorful personality and her desire for subtlety.

Through Shadow Work, the artist invites viewers to explore the intersection of personal identity, process, and materiality, as well as the physical transformations that shape her ongoing journey as a creator.
