Strung Together (2025)
Mother Earth Series, the connection between mother, a divine feminine character of the creator, and earth, has been explored through every culture on earth for centuries. Within this series I explore symbols used by different cultures across the globe in relation to their representations of Mother Earth, embedding the female form associated with birth within the nature itself to embody the interconnectedness of creator and life.
