Artist statement

When I was in kindergarten in 1981, my teacher Mrs Green did an experiment with the class. Each morning, recess, lunch and afternoon we would speak to the plants. One plant we greeted with kindness, support, love, gratitude and beauty, the other with hatred, anger, disappointment and shame. With amazement I watched the plants re-act to our thoughts and words.
