detail of Poison Flower, Star Flower (piece with porcelain illuminated)
2016
The Poison Flowers are hybrids of original sculpted forms, and slip-cast and press-molded objects and textures from nature, which I have combined to suggest a ‘new’ organism. I also think of them as decorative arrangements, very similar to a floral arrangement. Flowers are often used to celebrate important moments of our lives, everything from love to death.
This flower was created using molds from: snake, Tupperware, leaves, tooled-leather, lace, pine cone, shells, and beads
