From March 23, 2021 to July 15, 2021, I spent more than 150 hours exploring and creating in the beautiful 50-acre botanical gardens. Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens gave me the wonderful opportunity and resources to be inspired by nature and create. This exploration resulted in five costumes that I wore and engaged with the public. In addition to the wearable art pieces, I created five art dolls, and five small paintings as their accompaniments. I also took hundreds of photographs and selected 7 of my best ones. The art was exhibited in the garden's library gallery in September of 2021.
