Dream Map and Cornucopia with Potatoes
2023
Ink on Tyvek
135" x 90"

Text excerpted from a poem by Farid Matuk


A vase like a pedestal with an offering of potatoes, a humble root of the earth, offered to the moon. The background contains mythical anacondas, the feminine creator of a South American genesis. Snakes crawl the earth, potatoes grow close to it and so do strawberries. It calls to mind the cycles of the Earth, growth, harvest, and their relationship to the moon.
