Painting, Oil on Canvas
Size: 24 W x 16 H x 2 D in
The structure of this work was inspired by some of the dance paintings of Degas, while the tone and subject reflect my interest in how human domestic life can be simultaneously companionable and lonely.

I work as a painter, printmaker, and papermaker, focusing upon the precarious juxtaposition of daily life and "larger events". My work is narrative and figurative, with an element of magic realism - I am, mostly, a story-teller. I am interested especially in aspects of dislocation and longing experienced by those who are exiles within their own lands and/or who spend their lives mentally, emotionally, or physically stretched between two worlds. While most of the time I work in oils, using traditional materials and methods, about half of my recent work is in paper making, in which I embed text and images. I am currently developing a series of paper pieces incorporating text and photographs made by my grandfather between 1911 and 1925 - I consider these collaborative works. Over the past ten years, I have been resident artist, small finds researcher, and Arabic translator for the Great Arab Revolt Project in southern Jordan (2008-2011).
