I showed my video “Go and Sit with the Flowers” a 170 second looped video, 2025 , projected onto the patio wall at Cult of Happy, Lockhart Texas
“This work celebrates the beauty and intelligence of nature, focusing on the wildflowers grown in my front yard garden bed. The garden is not just a source of inspiration—it’s a living collaboration with the land, pollinators, and the rhythms of the natural world. The short film I’ve created is filmed from the perspective of a small being within this garden, where each flower was nurtured from seed, tended with care, and observed closely before becoming a subject in the film. These flowers become both subjects and vocabulary in my paintings and artwork. The plants symbolise resilience, interconnectedness, and the joy of paying attention. I see the short film as a visual meditation on time, memory, and nature’s healing presence. In public spaces, where people are often in motion, this video offers a moment of calm—like a visual breath—reminding us that we are part of something larger, connected through beauty and intelligence in the natural world.”
I made this piece to apply for the Midnight Moment, in Times Square NYC, where the last three minutes before midnight an artist can display a  video work on all the 70+ screens for on month. This piece was not selected but I was so proud of the work I was determined for it to be seen by the greater world.  Thank you to Cult of Happy for hosting my video, it felt good having a work like this at Cult of Happy.
