ABOUT THE WORK

“Part creature, part body, this painting is somewhere between the human and flower. Once again, the flower becomes a way of expressing the womb. The womb is a place of protection and care. It carried my son while he grew inside my body. At the same time, it is also a place connected to loss from miscarriages i’ve had, The painting reflects the tension between these experiences. Through the flower like form, the body appears both nurturing and vulnerable. The petals open like a flower depicting life, growth, and the complexity of the body that holds both creation and grief.” - Salvita De Corte
