The drawings of wilting flowers on rhombus shaped paper and ceramic flower bulbs, that were woodfired over several days, function as a metaphor for the inflammatory environment within the artists’ body. This causes chronic pain,with the artists’ work reflecting on formations of suffering and disconnection. The rhombuses, made from delicate Japanese paper, could be interpreted as silhouettes of wilting petals or scab-like structures of dried flowers. The pieces of paper are stitched together to form a trellis pattern, inspired by garden structures that are built to encourage plant growth, as well as being common in wallpaper designs throughout different time periods. The repetition of pain is reflected within this wallpaper pattern,which many people live with and around.
