Mend

These drawings emerged from my sense of interconnectedness between my own individual recovery from a serious medical crisis and the larger environmental crisis brought on by global warming. My own slow healing finds resonance and hope in the work of plants which remediated and mend environmental damage. The drawings are of plants used in phytoremediation a process wherein plants absorb, reduce, and clean up toxic contaminants in soil, water, or air.
