Flora forms developed with Blender 2.93.6 experimental Cycles engine

A derivative of the Mixed MIneral series, this body of work is a commentary on the politics of crossing borders, extraction of precious minerals from developing countries, and the navigation of multiple identities and cultures.

Images of precious minerals from developing and developed countries known for their mined resources and the local communities that mine them are manipulated through procedural settings in Blender 2.93.5 resulting in objects resembling flower forms, some more organic, others more crystalline.
