See The Flourishing Reign of Femme in Person This Spring in St. Pete
The Flourishing Reign of Femme, 2025
I’m so excited to share that my piece, The Flourishing Reign of Femme, will be on view in the Burka Member Lounge at the Warehouse Arts District Campus from April 12 to May 28, 2025, alongside other amazing pieces of member art. If you’re local to St. Petersburg (or feel like making a little art-inspired road trip), this is your chance to see the work up close—layers, textures, brushwork, and all.
This piece is deeply personal. It's a reflection on power, presence, and how femininity expands to take up space—even when it's been told to shrink.
In The Flourishing Reign of Femme, the objects traditionally considered masculine (a dresser, a wine glass—both “masculine” in many languages) are intentionally minimized. They appear almost too small, slightly out of place, as the more organic, fertile elements—vibrant turnips, scattered petals, a cracked eggshell—spill beyond their borders. It’s a quiet rebellion. A reclamation. A soft, radiant force that refuses to be contained.
Slightly “Off” Perspective Detail, The Flourishing Reign of Femme, 2025
This painting is part of my ongoing exploration of beauty in decay, the resilience of the feminine experience, and how societal frameworks attempt to contain something that was never meant to be boxed in. It’s about blooming anyway—blooming more, in spite of and because of the cracks.
And to see it in person? That’s where it really lives. The way the colors shift in the light, the subtle texture in the layers, the push and pull between restraint and overflow—it all comes through best when you’re standing in front of it.
