MOST RECENT WORK
Her most recent work, ‘all flesh is grass’, captures the form of plants located in The Peace Garden, Plymouth, United Kingdom. The Peace Garden memorialises those who were victims of slavery as well as those who were victims of genocides.
Flowers and foliage bloom all year due to the Old and New World planting. This ensures that there is not a day that goes by that the lives of those affected are forgotten. All flesh is grass is dedicated to the survivors of the Holocaust (1941-1945).
