Field is a photographic painting on glass comprised of flora, meadow flowers, indigenous plants, birds and Insect. Field  both references the history of the neighbourhood and the development of Withrow Park as a green space. The work hopes to evoke a contemplative space an oasis of the otherwise utilitarian space of the subway.  The work hopes to evoke a contemplative space an oasis of the otherwise utilitarian space of the subway. The components of field are arranged in a way that is intended to provide the viewer or passerby with a sense of lying in a field looking up. Plants and flowers reach into the composition from all sides layered with fallen petals and seeds of renewal. Seasonal change is implied as winter, spring, summer, and fall are represented by the life cycles of the flora.  Thanks to https://www.mosun.com/ for build and install.   Each panel it 4x4 feet on tempered glass hung in a grid.
