About the Work
I really love plants and flowers. I especially love how the boldness of them in this almost hides the slightly scary character looming behind. What does it mean? Unsure. But I'd have it on my wall.
- Jack Mitchell-Anyon, local business owner and musician, for the June 2021 instalment of the My Choice exhibition series.
