Project aim

Make a simplistic, clean collage– using a few botanical and floral elements but try to keep it more minimalist to fit the desired aesthetic.

Artists statement by Ryan Courtier

I decided to covey peace and clarity of mind by only including a few botanical images that in my mind are reminiscent of freedom days when we all felt like we could breathe... of course music helps enormously to zone-out and meditate! I really enjoyed listening to the music of boygenius, Mitski, Jay Som and the Twin Peaks soundtrack and responding visually.
