Gather (2020)
India ink on bristol
9 x 9 inches
These three panels explore the cultural experience of sharing a meal, and the important role community plays in this process. Each piece depicts an abundance of food. In the first two panels, the presence of hands signifies the beginning of the experience, and acts as a symbol of togetherness, patience, and gratitude for the food being offered. The final panel uses a collaged composition of a cake to holistically portray abundance, highlighting the central purpose of these meals: that they were made to be shared. Altogether, the panels appreciate meals as a process which recognizes the intentionality of shared experiences within a community.
