Biography
My entire life has been art-oriented.  My grandfather, Marius Barbeau, one of the founders of the Museum of Civilization, collected French Canadian and Native artifacts from all over the country.  My father, Arthur Price, was a professional painter and sculptor, and most of my siblings have pursued careers in visual arts.  I started full-time work on fabric sculptures in 2001.  I am a member of the Textile Study Group of New York, and of the International Sculpture Center.

About Me

My photo
After many years of experimentation with different techniques using rope, thread and fabric, I now work in a medium which perfectly suits my concept of sensuality and my ideas on the mystery of life as seen from a completely female angle. Working with textiles is sensual in its own right, the fabrics are pliable according to their many different textures, and a delight to the eye. My work mainly explores sex and reproduction, which might fairly be called the major obsession of all living creatures on earth, and I include the intangible concept of love, the principal obsession of human beings.
