During Summer 2018 I rediscovered my childhood flower press – it was an interesting and moving experience, removing each layer of card and blotting paper and uncovering not only preserved flowers but the marks, stains and indentations – residues and remnants of flowers previously there. These traces are the focus of a body of work entitled Fragility. As the project progressed practical processes such as cyanotype, devore and graphite rubbings were explored to create ghostly images of plant matter - not perfect copies but representations that suggest remnants, memories. The work was compiled into a series of books or herbaria.
