Bouquet No 14

This digital collage draws on the trauma and regeneration witnessed during the catastrophic 2019–20 Australian bushfires. Composed of scanned burnt timber, charred textures, and AI-generated flora, the work reflects both devastation and resilience. The metallic petals and scorched forms speak to a fragile ecosystem under threat, yet their arrangement suggests a ceremonial offering—a tribute to what was lost and what may still endure. By fusing organic remnants with digital processes, this piece evokes the collision of nature and technology, mourning the past while imagining new growth. It is a visual elegy and a call to climate consciousness.
