Garden (unravel & fade)

Garden (unravel & fade), 2020
51” H x 58” W x 1”
Photographic tapestry, (unravelled thread from tapestry)
-
Thread cascades from my floral photographs, as if nature itself is unraveling.

In my work, flowers symbolize our humanity, ideas of sacredness, resiliency & hope.

This series explores the term “hanging by a thread” implying something is in an uncertain state & not likely to survive or succeed.

As our environmental, social & political landscapes continue to divide & fray, the metaphor of a garden, idyllic & beautiful, reflects hope of an optimistic outcome, a return to connectedness & wellbeing.

I combine photography with thread, marrying organic subjects with artificial processes, digital manipulation with handmade – a tension between divine and human nature.
