Origin of 'Woman'

NOT COMPLETED - IN PROGRESS.

Real leaves and real rose petals on canvas.

This 8-foot by 6-foot piece is paired with 'Man' and represents an Eve-like figure. She lies nude on her side, seen from above. Her skin and hair are made of rose petals. She is made from the symbol that has historically defined women in art - roses for beauty, fragility, desire and transformation. The leaves she is lying on are made from the very leaves she lies on. The image is the medium.
