About the work
PENANCE is an intimate Eco-Assemblage built on a canvas of white rose petals, glazed & overlaid with watered-down pale pink acrylic. The surface appears white at distance, but closer inspection reveals dabbed pink undertones. Across the canvas, undulating ridges of upturned rose tips are painted fuchsia, with lighter pinks sliding down their narrow sides—creating a network of crack-like patterns that resemble healing wounds or scars left behind. At the center, a square piece of netting is stretched diagonally from top left to bottom right, forming a horizontal canal. The netting is stiffened with white paint and edged with frayed cuts. 13 white-painted chewed gum balls lie tangled within the mesh. Vertical tulip petals surround the canal's exterior, covering it completely. Inside, twisted rose & tulip petals fill the space—light, airy, with deep pink-to-purple tones appearing sparingly. A bougainvillea flower's petals (pinky-lilac) sit at the canal's center, its 4 petals surrounding a visible white gum ball. The outer ridge of tulip petal tips is outlined in a thin fuchsia line. Multiple glaze coats protect the petals & maintain stiffness.
Materials: Rose petals, wallpaper paste, acrylics, netting, chewed gum, tulip & bougainvillea petals, glaze.
Palette: White, pale pink, fuchsia, deep pink, pink.
Technique: 3D assemblage with textured overlay, contained interior space, intentional fragility.
