Hyster Lux is Latin for “womb light.” This is a painting of the menstrual cycle hormones displayed in the light spectrum to show the complexity and beauty of the hormones that shape women. Red is estrogen. Yellow is progesterone. Blue is LH. White is FSH. Black is the absence of light. White is a mixture of all the colors of the light spectrum.

Clay is such an exciting and responsive medium in which to work. Most often I only have a germ of an idea when I begin a project. I begin to build a form and before I know it, a wild dance has begun between me and the clay. It seems to know the steps and where we are headed, so I blithely follow along, taking my cues from a bend or an outcropping in the clay. Maybe it’s starting to look like a weeping woman, or a cat with a crown on its head. I just let the dance go …

While creating this image, I took these questions into account. What I love most about the process is that all of these questions can be answered by the viewers of this artwork. Based on our own experiences, we can come up with story lines for everything that we see. Therein lies the beauty of art. Its true meaning is left to the creative imagination of whomever appreciates it.
As healthcare professionals, we have to understand that each patient might be our “Mysterious Woman”. We have to appreciate the fact that our patients are emotional beings and not just a collection …

This picture was taken in a local school in Gujarat, India. These happy girls, who shied away from the camera, walk miles every day to attend their school that does not have a roof. This picture represents their commitment to a better future and my commitment to the people of the country of my birth as I continue my training.

I gave her a metallic outline to symbolize how women can be strong and resilient and simultaneously shiny and beautiful. Her core is painted the same as her surroundings and the color blue symbolizes fluid and flexibility that reminds us of the strength women possess while constantly adapting throughout their lives.

This piece is entitled Root of Everything. A woman waters the soil like she nurtures her family and inspires our minds. She plants the seeds in our heads so we can explore and see paths blooming from the branch up north all the way to the branch down south. The female form is the nutrient of life.

What inspired me to work on the female form was the belief that our minds can create our reality. Most of my life I had suffered from morbid obesity - reaching at one point 288 lbs. Most likely my body weight reached higher numbers, but I refused to step on the scale after observing the dreaded 288! I was suffering from low self esteem, depression, severe low back pain, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis and several other "itis" when I realized that the most powerful tool that I had available was my brain. If I was going to turn my life around, …

I made this with my father using a lateral chest X-ray superimposed under a quality control film. Together, we drew in the facial features, cut and pasted and enlarged the photographic image to produce this beautiful, strong assertive woman. We thought this image perfectly reflects the power, determination, and mystery contained within her gaze. Together and from within, women show their strength.

In the outdated traditional view of women, spiders are associated with certain qualities and attributes. Beauty. Grace. Cunning. Homemakers. Skill with crafts. I tried to imagine these over-generalized features in another form that can be juxtaposed with this antiquated view. And I came up with the spider from the story of Arachne.
