Layered handmade papers form a lush, constructed still life where nature feels both alive and observed. Monstera leaves lean in, almost sentient, while a small glass holds fleeting life—two fish suspended in a fragile moment. The bold orange vessel anchors the composition, contrasting the cool greens and blues with warmth and weight. Texture drives the narrative: torn edges, pulp surfaces, and dimensional layering create a tactile tension between growth and containment. This piece blurs the line between stillness and presence, inviting the viewer to consider what, exactly, is watching whom.
What makes this piece unique is:
1 The orange vase is made from recycled paper (think junk mail and collage scraps) by the artist.
2 The Monstera was created from recycled cardboard raising from the 1.5 “ depth cradle creating it’s own shadows as the sun changes.
3 The fishbowl is layers of paper - water created on a gel plate, fish added on top and the translucenty of the glass created with thin mulberry paper
