Refraction - Limited Edition Photopolymer Etching

Refracting – Limited Edition Photopolymer Etching

Description:
Refraction is a large, bold yet delicate photopolymer etching created by exposing pressed, dried lilies onto a plate to form an intricate natural design. The fragile yet powerful composition speaks to the strength and beauty found in transformation and resilience.

This artwork is part of a deeply personal series exploring the idea of losing a part of oneself in order to heal, survive, or grow. In particular, Refracting reflects the artist’s experience undergoing a preventative mastectomy due to the BRCA1 gene mutation — a testament to how bodies may change, but the spirit remains unaltered, merely refracted into something equally strong and beautiful.

With its poignant symbolism and elegant execution, Refraction makes a meaningful gift for anyone touched by cancer, whether survivor, previvor, or ally — or for anyone who finds beauty in transformation and renewal.
