I have always loved boxes. I like how they keep things contained. I especially like small boxes, for their intimacy perhaps, but occasionally will make some large ones. Over the years, there have been many boxes, sometimes created as part of a larger body of work, but more often they are “one offs”. These singular boxes seem to demand to be made and generally are quite helpful in working through personal conundrums.
