"Theresa" is a sculpture that exudes a multifaceted and deeply personal artistic statement, blending elements of performance, creativity, and a connection to the earth. The centerpiece, a porcelain doll's head with brilliant green eyes, draws the viewer in with a gaze that is both enigmatic and vividly alive. This is augmented by a lustrous topaz crystal set upon her forehead, serving as a beacon of the artist's inner light and ingenuity. Crowning the head, bright yellow ostrich feathers erupt in a flamboyant display reminiscent of a showgirl's headdress, signaling a presence that is impossible to ignore, vibrant and full of life. Transitioning to the body, a ceramic vase seamlessly takes on the hues of the sculpture's upper elements—greens, yellows, and the warm glow of topaz—suggesting a cohesive aesthetic identity. Mustard-colored moss spills from the neckline, grounding the piece with a touch of nature and a hint of the wild. "Theresa" is more than a sculpture; she embodies the dichotomy of an artist—both a performer and a creator, her roots deeply entrenched in the fertile ground of creative expression.
