Deborah R. Morris
Country
Born 1981, New Zealand; residing New Zealand
Dimensions
17 x 17 x 3.5 In.
Medium
Watercolor, handmade inks, and pen on hand-embossed paper
Morris has collaged watercolored landscapes and abstract scenes from handmade inks made with materials gathered from meaningful locations. The scenes depict places Morris passed as she visited her sister who was sick with cancer. When her sister passed, Morris created this work to represent two people who come together in grief. The sacred space created from the shared mourning is crisscrossed with threads of gold connections.
“[This work] is an invitation to mourn with those who mourn, creating a shared space for healing and understanding.”
—Deborah R. Morris
