Seed Paintings

Inspired by Indigenous ceremonial traditions these pieces use nature to depict the connection between the self and the Universe. Each piece depicts a person with caricature-like features in a personified version of what they would look like if they were a sun. The sun rays are extensions of their personalities and each work of art uses a distinct variety of herbs and seeds to further tell the story of the individual's energy. Hard geometric shapes are used to depict a rigid and bold personality while elegant rays are used to depict effervescent and feminine characteristics. Red chili pepper flakes are used for hot tempered individuals while cinnamon powder is used to describe a sweet natured individual.
