This project is a story about women's growth and ageing. Drawing on the diverse female communities around me and my own experience as a woman, I explore my understanding and reflections on life's stages. I use flowers and plants as metaphors for women of different ages. For example, you can see rhododendrons likened to young girls entering adulthood, and cacti as women entering adulthood.

Final work

This book tells the story of a fairy's journey through the life of an ordinary woman aging, using various plants as metaphors to rethink aging.
