Inspired by Diana, Roman Goddess of the hunt
Diana is the Roman goddess of the hunt, the moon, and nature, often depicted with a bow and quiver of arrows. She is the daughter of Jupiter and Latona, and the twin sister of Apollo, the god of the sun and music. Revered as a virgin goddess, Diana is considered a protector of women and children, as well as a guardian of the wilderness and animals. In Roman mythology, she is often equated with Artemis, her counterpart in Greek mythology, and is revered for her strength, independence, and fierce hunting skills.
Technique
Whispers of the Forest (Ode to Diana the Untamed) was created by constructing a hand-cut collage using female photographic portraiture and a handmade headdress, combined with photographs and models of trees, foliage and leaves, alongside illustrations of flora and dogs.
