“Beauty Remains” my instillation series for the Efrem Atkins (a visiting artist to my drawing 2 class) project. 

medium:solvent transfer, and Burning paper

Concept:Beauty through destruction. I believe that even through destruction beauty can still be found within the ruins of what once was.The lotus flower represents what was before the destruction. It was a beautiful flower and my use of fire represents the means for destruction of that flower,and in the end something (in my opinion) even more beautiful was born through the process
