"If Only I Could Meet Someone Perfect" Cast, cut and painted glass shapes mounted above panel of sewn thread and appliqué, 24"x32", 2019 This piece is not based on an old fable but rather on my own collection of refrains about the longing for a companion and the obstacles that sometimes prevent a happy outcome. Each figure is caught in a vessel which represents the habits, comforts, expectations and assumptions that can get in the way of getting together.
