Still Life: Violets

“In Still Life: Violets, I use close-up photographs from bouquets... The zoomed-in photos become abstracted, glowing gradients of color that are echoes of the original flowers. The gridded compositions in the book form act as a unifying force that touches on issues related to how we process images and information in relation to memory and loss."
