ARTISTS STATEMENT
I wanted to just do something creative and fun with my plants but looking back at the photos reminded me the sides of my physicality I don't always pay attention to or think to celebrate. I have this saggy, curvy, pale, pudgy body for the most part and I spend so much time celebrating other people's marginalised bodies without including me in that affirmation. It was special to take a moment to look at my chubby body from all the angles and remember it's wonderful. Also I haven't really done any photography beyond phone camera selfies so it was humbling to see how hard it is to set up shots you thought up but can't seem to get how you want them in reality. And bodies are delightfully disobedient subjects, particularly when you have 12FF breasts that like to wander.
