A slight, fifty-something botanist with bobbed chestnut hair releases a flock of winged seedpods from a brass specimen box into a chaotic swirl of biomorphic forms. Rendered in frenzy-driven automatic pen lines directly over the grain of weathered wood and pressed leaves, the piece captures the subconscious obsessions of 1920s Surrealism. Stark ink cross-hatching creates dramatic, dreamlike shadows.
