Myoflorae
Van Gogh's observation that "we cannot get to a star while we are alive any more than we can take the train when we are dead" has helped shape Myoflorae's expansion from working with bones to fur and organs as precious connections to life. They incorporate hand-stitching and tattooing on rabbit furs to assimilate two daily uses of different skins. Subverting the display of pelts as trophies, the scenes use each unique coat pattern as a window to illustrate the sky that individual was born under, or they combine that view with anatomical correspondences. Similarly, the floral organ prints play between societal values on different types of death and which types may yield beauty. Frames made by hand from locally reclaimed wood hold these pieces. The blurring of conventional distinctions aims to celebrate life and its sustenance in death with utmost respect.
