Baroque Research Trip

In Summer 2017, I spent two weeks at Chateau d’Orquevaux in Champagne-Ardenne, France. While there, I completed these works. The intricate miniatures reflect my first attempts to incorporate Europe’s Colonial history into my work. The gold paint is specifically French, and is the same gold color seen all over Paris.
