I have found that emotional tears are increasingly triggered by a broader range of feelings including: physical pain; attachment-related pain; empathetic, compassionate pain; societal pain and sentimental or moral feelings.
The “Remembrance” series of the sculptural eyes began as small-scale drawings of crying eyes and tears during the pandemic. Along with gouache and ink, I used a sewing machine as a drawing tool. (last image) I sought to create this movement on a larger 3D scale. Each work stemmed from a specific memory including nostalgia, anger, and family relationships. The works incorporate ceramic glazed tears, various glazes and lusters, silk cord and personal items such as shells, beads and family jewelry.

This exhibition explores nature as a dynamic process of growth, transformation, and renewal, featuring six artists whose practices engage with the natural world not simply as image, but as material, surface, time, and change. Through acts of rubbing, pressing, scraping, layering, compressing, and imprinting, the artists reveal the often unseen forces that shape our environment, tracing the marks of weather, growth, erosion, and decay.
Together, these works invite viewers to slow down and look closely—to notice textures, traces, and subtle shifts that might otherwise go unseen. Rooted in observation and process, the exhibition encourages a deeper awareness of our connection to the natural world and the interconnected cycles of light, matter, and time that shape both nature and ourselves.
