The photography-based assemblages in this series are influenced by the tradition of pioneering feminist artists who are subject in photographic images in nature. The landscape is presented in these images to convey a connection to the natural world. Photographs of one's self are often assumed to be self-portraits. My point with these images is to suggest a persona. These reflections draw upon themes associated with mythic images of the priestess that embody divine female power. In the ancient world, the priestess officiated sacred rituals. Their spiritual authority came from their inner wisdom, which was deeply grounded in the natural world.
