a latin word meant to describe how a thing “comes to life.”
Functionally this word would have most likely been used to communicate ideas of nature, growth, & blooming. It means that life is eminent. Life is unfolding all around us all of the time, and it deeply desires your participation. In so many ways life beckons, “come to me,” in a grand effort to capture your attention. So in turn you must ask yourself, how do you come to life?
This body of work is an exploration of life and vitality using floral motifs and the mythological archetype of the garden paradise.
