ALIDA FISH NEW WORK
Artist Statement These botanical photographs are part of a series entitled “Volunteers.� Recently, I have been looking closely at grasses and wild flowers. I am inspired by their simple beauty, tenacity, and medicinal potential. The images are printed on oxidized aluminum; due to the variations in the oxidation process, each piece is unique.
