I WANT TO BE LEAF II

Leaf ink dyed paper and photo transparency, 3 x 5 inches, 2023.

I Want To Be Leaf II, which depicts the artist’s self portrait, consists of digitally altered photography on plastic transparency and stenciled leaf-ink dyed paper. The piece reflects on ideas of longing to be one with nature and materiality vs. depiction. Using the same imagery as a previous work printed on leaf paper, I Want To Be Leaf II is a combination of naturally derived pigment and alternative printing.
