Bee

"[This piece was] inspired by bees, which have been declared the most important living beings on this planet. Beyond bringing attention to the immense complexity of the natural world, one of my primary goals as an artist is to raise environmental consciousness. I print on handmade papers made from recycled materials such as old cotton shirts and linen sheets, as well as plant fibers, especially those of invasive plants. Fundamentally, my work is about discovering, then understanding, and finally expressing an attitude towards nature."
