In an essay that serves as a curatorial statement for an exhibition at Seymour Art Gallery in North Vancouver (2008), Kriss Boggild asks women artists about their relationship to flowers. The artists draw on historic and critical inspirations, from philosophers to environmentalists to historians and other contemporary artists.
