Seed Paper
2019
30 x 22 inches
Water dyed with beet, turmeric, cabbage; collected lavender, marigold, catmint seeds from my garden; homemade glue (cornstarch based) on paper
Inspired after watching the creation and destruction of a Tibetan Buddhist sand mandala. I wanted to explore the ideas of impermanence, change and growth. I created a non-toxic self portrait, made to be planted in the earth, to become something completely new. A new form can take shape with the growth of seedlings.
