There’s Always Been Dead Peasants
Giclée Print, 24"x36" with 1.5" white border
From the limited series Perfumed Words, this striking black-and-white giclee print transforms the delicate language of flowers into a vehicle for subversion. Rendered in rich charcoal tones and printed on archival cold press paper, the image evokes both softness and violence—petals become flesh, folds become shrouds. The title, drawn from Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake, underscores the cyclical nature of human conflict and erasure. A haunting meditation on beauty, brutality, and the histories we repeat.
