Propagation
: the act of spreading, multiplying, or extending
These works on canvas take root in the idea of plant propagation — the process of growing new life from small botanical cuttings. Inspired by snippets of plants gifted to me by people I love, I designed a series of interlocking modular tile motifs. Through repetition and play with colour, a single tile can accumulate into a myriad of patterned compositions referencing Modernist painting, architecture, and domestic arts.
