Seed series

The Seed Series reflects on light and dark, regeneration and rebirth, and nature’s wisdom in natural growth cycles. Revisited at times of personal transformation, the series is inspired by foraged seed pods, cactus skeletons, and dried flowers from the desert landscapes of California, Mexico, and the Southwest. The cut paper studies and papier-mâché objects were created using pochote paper pulp, handmade paper and natural dyes made from flowers, cochineal and indigo in Oaxaca, Mexico.
