Final Project: Growth

Growth

In these series of images are the growth of a lilac with memorabilia from my four years of college to demonstrate the symbiotic relationship between nature and humans. I was inspired by the nature genre photographs of Stephen Tomasko and Julie Fischer McCarter.

Nature heals and has been shown to melt away anger, fear, and stress, so please do not focus on the fears of the pandemic, but just relax a little.
