Many of my works pay homage to the strength and grace of the mothers in my family. The pearls symbolize their enduring class, even in hard times. As a tribute to my dear mother's and grandmother's love for gardening, I include flowers or plants in many of my works - an everlasting connection with those I cherish most dearly. The plants also symbolize new life; a reminder of the tropical climate back home. Suitcases laid out around her indicate recent movement or displacement.
