About the Artwork:

‘Astrum Ardenti’ describes self destructive, anxious, and hopeful experiences in the explosion of a star atop a danish poppy. She was breathed into life by intoxicating poisons from every part of the flower, symbolizing rebirth within psychosis, and altered states of awareness. A burning star of undeniable joy.
