Life

She was born in New Orleans, Louisiana where diverse cultural rituals and the landscape of the region would be influential in her later work. While immersing herself in art at the University of Wisconsin department of art, she studied painting with Victor Kord. During her graduate studies at Virginia Commonwealth University she began creating structures with alternative materials such as chicken wire, plastic objects and painted wood and also worked with Peter Saul as a studio assistant. In 1980 she began her career as an artist in New York City. There in addition to setting up her own studio and art practice she worked for the Robert Miller gallery. At the same time she exhibited her work in groups exhibitions in and outside New York City and also curated and wrote reviews. In 1996 she moved with her daughter Isabelle Meyers to New Orleans where she is based today.
