With regards to works like thought image (3 parts) and boy + girl + plaid skirt, the following comes to mind. I saw a metal clothes hanger on the side of the road near where I live. It made me think of all the different clothes that might have hung on that hanger over time. All maybe a little different from each other in fabric or color or cut or purpose, but all clothes. Then I thought of the various “thought images” that populate my work – over time and ongoing. They are very much like the clothes that were draped over that hanger over the years – each "thought image" appearing and disappearing only to reappear again and again – sometimes a little bruised – or broken – or disfigured.
