From the artist: There are not many circles that exist in nature. The ones that do are powerful life forces: the sun, the moon, the planets, the seed heads of flowers. I think we find circles both powerful and attractive visually. the process of collage allowed me to insert a level of imagination and metaphorical suggestion. Is the main circle a sunflower, or the sun? Are we looking at other sunflowers the moon, or perhaps the planets? I wanted to blur the lines between still life and imaginary landscape; a rhythm of repeating circles swirling around the canvas suggesting some greater power... The Circles of Life." - Jill Carver.
