SKUNK AND GARLIC MUSTARD
Skunk and Garlic Mustard
I smell skunks, and find evidence where they dug in the lawn for grubs, more often than I spot them. For this piece I had the luxury of an entire skunk skeleton to work with, and chose to combine the images with a print of the garlic mustard that runs rampant in my garden and the woods nearby.
Cyanotypes on cotton, heliographic print on silk, artist-painted and commercial silk and cotton fabrics, vintage embroidery, stitching.
