Referencing both ecological and personal grief, the work is both self portrait and an elegy to what we’re losing.
'Those fires will always remind me of our slow unravelling within a lifetime of ecological grief. Those falling branches. Those fluttering leaves. It’s always a question of values as we slip further, chasing our gilded dreams. This work is both an elegy to what we’re losing and a self-portrait from those times.'
Bringing together found branches and bronze casts of fungi and leaves, Rebecca's works are a poignant reminder of our role in protecting what is precious.
Each work pins easily into a wall.
