Rust Hydrangea

NFS

18" W x 24" L


This is part of my hydrangea series and was inspired by two things - rust and a deteriorating hydrangea showing it’s skeletal form.  The hydrangea photo was manipulated in Photoshop to accent the skeletal form.  When I layered this digital print over the rusted fabric, the petal seemed to extend beyond the print in an even more minimal petal.  I thought combining these slightly defective elements, by patching and mending, would make them both a bit more whole.
