Figurative forms emerge from this collage of female flower heads. The collage contains Papaver somniferum flower heads which have been repeated continuously until a new form is found. Using dark tones creates an ethereal palette and a new experience when observing these plants.
With an interest in elevating the everyday overlooked plant Papaver somniferum that is all around us and in turn monumentalising their presence. I have explored and worked with plants in their natural forms, focusing on their perfected life cycle, and vital aesthetic, nutritional and medicinal roles. Growing and nurturing the plant varieties and painting them from life, deepening my connection with the subjects. This piece is part of a collection, the works are created in different mediums of art combining the traditional drawn, painted, and collaged to contemporary digital manipulation to create novel discovered art. That expands the plant's form and shape into abstracted floral pieces manifesting new realities.
