In this collection, the Season of Changes for Mount Auburn Cemetery’s artist residency program, I explore the relationship to places by comparing body as landscape using the concept of impermanence from Theravada Buddhism. At their core, my paintings explore the dynamic relationship between site and self and greater connections between humans and nature. At Mount Auburn Cemetery, human bodies are transitioning into the earth through burial or sky through cremation. During the residency, I focused on representing the changing color of the ground foliage and the color of the sky helps me to examine internally and externally the cycle of our lives foster a stronger understanding of how our lives are a part of the ever-changing environment.
