Statement
Renewal. The act of making new again. Old and obsolete. Fresh and reinvigorated. Nature inhabits abandoned habitats. Adaptation. New life and new civilizations. Floral arrangements as inverted architecture. Artifacts of a static history. Exposed to the elements. Mossy furniture. Masked thrifting. Make nature comfortable. Erase vases. Regeneration. Painting sky over wallpaper. Recursion. Food of the gods. Color-matching patina. A tree grows through the kitchen floor. Repair. Old forms in new contexts. Refine. Fresh takes on old favorites. Spring cleaning.
