Flowers For My Ancestors
Flowers For My Ancestors
Message me @heydashaunae@gmail.com for custom pricing. I’m excited to collaborate with you and hear your ancestors stories
How I Started
I started this unique process when my mother passed away in 2020. It became important for me to give my mother the flowers she did not receive in life but in death. The floral adornment of my mother sits on my altar today as a reminder of her life and the beauty her energy still carries in death.
My Process
I clip flowers grown from concrete in my neighborhood mixed with bouquet flowers that embody the energy I feel from each portrait.
What You Will Receive
Each purchase grants you exclusive access to a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Marisa's meticulous process involves crafting an Ancestral adornment that intertwines the images of your ancestors with a carefully selected array of flowers. The result is a visually stunning and deeply meaningful work that is uniquely yours.
Your purchase goes beyond acquiring a physical art piece; it supports the artist in her mission to explore themes of life, death, and cultural identity. By choosing Ancestral Adornments, you contribute to the continuation of meaningful artistic expression and the celebration of diverse ancestral stories.
Finished work will be shipped in a black shadow box that is safe for transport and ready to hang. Please fill free to reframe based on personal preference. Due to the nature of using dried flowers some petals naturally fall off but be assured you’ll still receive your ancestors in beautiful condition!
Acceptable print sizes - 8 x 10, 10 x 10, 11 x 11, 11 x 14, 13 x 16
