Imprint

ISB | Mixed media | 30 x 10 x 10 cm

This piece is open to personal interpretation, yet undoubtedly this piece represents fertility, life and the fragility of it with the use of eggs. Every shell has a unique imprint of flowers taken from my mum’s garden, to express the exceptional relationship that is mother and child. Cyanotype was used inside the eggs to create these imprints, an important aspect to this medium is the properties of the sun reactant chemical is that the print will not last forever or remain as it was when first washed, similar to as we grow up we divert from the original imprint.
