Remedy, sixteen wall-mounted cast bronze sculptures. 1/1
Life-size botanical renderings of 16 plants dedicated to treating mental illness and female disorders: St. John's Wort, lavender, valerian, skullcap, wormwood, ginkgo, hawthorn, maypop, California poppy, chamomile, saffron, golden root, blessed thistle, and sweet orange, etc. Installed on a red wall in a large grid of 4 x 4 plants, the series recalls an apothecary display; the natural world and the female body are ordered into the Linaean System of Classification and are increasingly subject to medicalization.
