Swan Song from my Perspective series was selected by Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center In Association with the Smithsonian Institution for the Fragments: Reflections on Memory Art Exhibition, which is on display in the Kay Daugherty Gallery of the center for two months. We had a great opening reception and I recommend visiting the gallery during the day while the show is on to also enjoy the magical sculpture garden.
This exhibition explores how individual and collective memory can shape our identity and perception and influence our understanding of the world. Memory intertwines with our daily lives and is a fluid, shifting narrative.

February 21 – April 27, 2025
A few words about the artwork:
Swan Song is a visualization of orchestral music inspired by classical music. Fragmented color fields vibrate at different levels. I use multidirectional perspectives to mimic musical harmony and my childhood memories of the first large classical performances I attended. The swan with a cut-off reflection is lost in the vast man-made interior, depicting our endangered nature; hence, the swan’s last song.
