Betsy Stewart

Using biomorphic images, my work examines the microscopic, mutually dependent life systems found in pond water; giving these images a presence speaks to our fragile position in the cosmos. These images explore the regenerative symmetry inherent to the morphing of the natural world; the viewer is encouraged to consider the unseen minutiae that saturate our micro/macro universe.

“When we tug at a single thing in nature, we find that it is attached to the rest of the world”.  John Muir
