Fruits Of Their Labour
Fine Art Prints
Artist Statement
My latest collection Fruits Of Their Labour is a love letter to my childhood; my upbringing, my heritage, and the strength of those who paved the way.
I am the granddaughter of immigrants, raised in the city by the coast, and I spent much of my childhood at my Italian grandparents home. My Nonna and Nonno lived simply. Their hands were always busy — sewing, harvesting, creating. I loved being by their side, surrounded by the scent of the garden and home cooked meals, the warmth of homegrown love.
The life I live now is a direct result of their sacrifices, and this body of work carries both the visible and invisible fruits of their labour — a name that holds a layered meaning, and a piece of my heart.
More than any collection before it, this collection brings me home — to the garden, the animals, the laughter, the love. It’s a story of roots and remembrance, painted in gratitude and grown from the hands that shaped me.
