July 2009
My pieces treat the subject of Fireweed from various scientific perspectives including Ecology, Taxomony, Seed Morphology, Parasitism, Symbiosis, and the Mathematics of Growth Patterns. See the 2009 Gallery page for photos.
The piece "Ecology" hangs in the lower gallery.
Three of the pieces are double-sided and can be hung as room dividers. They are constructed from sheer fabrics so that backlighting becomes an important variable in their appearance, and they change constantly as light conditions vary throughout the day. The photo above shows one side of the piece “Ecology”. The piece on the wall to the left is “Symbiosis”.
Some pieces in the upper gallery.
The two pieces, “Taxonomy” and “Parasitism”, hanging side by side in the photo above are also double-sided. A couple of my other pieces, “In Pursuit” and “Succession” can be seen on the wall to the left.
