She has already opened. Every petal unfurled, all colour revealed.
This piece is a study of a peony in full bloom, rendered in the tradition of patchwork. Each layer a different fabric, a different texture. It is an homage to the Black maternal quiltmakers who pieced together beauty from what they had, and left it for us to carry forward.
Fruit of My Flower was born in the quiet of pregnancy and the tender chaos of postpartum, a meditation on seven years of growing things in the earth, and the revelation that a baby and a bloom ask the same thing of you. Faith, patience, and the willingness to be changed.
Every fruit was a flower first.
Limited edition of 15.
20×20”
Giclee print, on archival paper with a matte finish that produces rich and saturated colours, using archival pigment inks, designed to last for years without losing its original beauty.
