Chrono Flora
The solo exhibition "Chrono-Flora: The Time of Plants" in the Conkling Gallery at Minnesota State University (August - September 2019) was part of a month-long Artist Residency. In this exhibition I was thinking about how to depict the passage of time within a single image using a combination of plants, cut-paper, drawing materials, gouache and acrylic paint, and plastic. The long photograph on the left is also titled "Chrono-Flora (2019)," it is an Archival Inkjet Print (36 x 300 inches) made using the "Digital Solargram" technique. This series of images was inspired by early Chonrophotographs of Interference Wave patterns by Berenice Abbott.
