Orison is another word for prayer. Created during the Covid-19 pandemic, this meander book created from a single sheet of botanical printed paper. There are five pockets created at the rowturn-arounds, each containing a laminated card with various seed, plant and feather specimens. The text is hand written in acrylic ink. Housed in custom drop-spine box with a dimensional collage in the tray base.
O spring day, let my body drink you in.⁠⠀ Let this day show me how to press⁠⠀ nearer to loveliness.⁠⠀ Make the wonder of this day become a part of me.
