Requiem for (our) Mother Natures is an installation which sheds light on the identities of Women and Mothers through the symbolic physiology represented within the flowers relating to females in coded ways. Amid the pandemic, the exhibit also reflects mourning where the material used was plastic where it does not die naturally and remains far beyond its shelf life. The timely process of creating each flower with used materials is also touching on the humans collective impact destroying Mother Nature and challenging the stereotypical norm of where women's roles are placed in society.
