She is inspired by fantasy, allegory, positive and negative, and patterns that are a part of her everyday. Most comfortable with an exacto-knife, and very attentive to what surrounds her, what she is not focusing on seems to always become a part of her visual environment. Eisenberg Pitman describes her method as one of “re-conceptualization” of what appears familiar in day-to-day life. She favors the use of commonly found-though-unconventional artistic materials, like discarded periodicals, playbills, comics, catalogues, and empty space. Using this limited array, she explores the relationships and potential associations that arise from merging remains.
