AGAVE LEAF SCULPTURES AND INSTALLATIONS

AGAVE WINGS | AGAVE AUREOLES | AGAVE SUNS | SUCKULENT SERIES

IN 2000, I READ A BOOK THAT SUGGESTED THAT I MEDITATE NEXT TO AN AGAVE PLANT AND ASKED IT WHAT IT'S GIFT WAS FOR ME.  I SAT WITH THE AGAVE AND IT SHARED WITH ME THAT THE GIFT IT COULD OFFER WAS TO TEACH ME ABOUT PROTECTING MYSELF.  THE AGAVE PLANTS GROWS IN A SYMMETRICAL MANDALA ARRAY THAT PROTECTS ITSELF FROM DESERT SEEKING ANIMALS BY HAVING EXTREMELY SHARP LEAVES.

THE AGAVE PLANT HAS NECTAR INSIDE IT'S SELF, JUST LIKE WE ALL HUMANS DO.
