From the Artist: "Two ideas came together at the inception of the Sink or Swim series. I had recently given birth to my first son and found myself alternately floating and sinking in a sea of motherhood. Also, my dye painted silks began to remind me of underwater environments. Later in the series, as I gained confidence, I added elements of tropical fish. After the birth of my second son, I am still swimming."
