“THIS MINIATURE IS ABOUT THE STAGES OF LIFE AND DEATH THROUGH THE SKELETAL FORMATION OF A FIGURATIVE FLOWER. THIS PHYSICAL WORK SHOWS THE FLORET AS ‘FIERY REDS’ THAT CONTRAST THE DIGITAL IMAGE OF ‘GROWING GREENS’ AS BOTH HUMANITY AND NATURE COLLIDE IN DIFFERING ENVIRONMENTAL OUTCOMES. THE SAME CAN BE APPLIED TO LIFE WITH THE BEAUTY OF WINNING AND EMPTINESS OF LOOSING.”
