Slowing viewers down to the speed of nature.

After the Poppy House, I decided that the imagery was too loaded, and simplified the imagery to a basic cube. Cast it in latex. And cast seeds and ice. These were then left to melt, the seeds were left behind to be taken away by the wind, or insects.

These were only installed outdoors. I loved the idea of the results of my work being consumed, and carried away by nature, and replanted…
