Her newest series features paintings of kitchen utensils, like Knife I (2008, oil on linen, 28 x 42 inches). “I’ve always picked very simple objects mainly for their ability to reflect,” she says. “It’s kind of interesting to see all that can go on in something so ordinary and simple that we all have to deal with every day.”
