Botanica - Part One



Spiral Aloe
2005

I've always liked finding shapes and forms in natural elements. There's a certain inherent simplicity and beauty to be seen in the things that surround us. 

     In this case, an aloe plant integrates its natural growth into flowing spiral designs, with soft, patterned stalks and contrasting white, spiked edges.

  1. It's ironic that an image of lethal-like spikes actually provides healing and comfort.
