• My body, my earth, my activism,standing 2020-2

  Continuing the story from my first entry about my passion for how I behave as one with elements of my natural environment, I decided to photograph myself standing as I interacted with long branch trimmings hanging from the ceiling of the studio. The trimmings are painted gold because I wanted to seal them. They were…

• My body, my earth, my activism, 2020-2

  It is June 25, 2022, the day after the Supreme Court of the United States began to take away our human rights with the reversal of Roe V. Wade, and the Republican party could blatantly roll out its conspiracy to uproot our freedoms. Two and a half years ago, I was on the cusp of…

• Doubles, 2020

  These drawings are derived from photographs that were taken of the hanging wrapped branch sculptures, the All Tied Up Series (https://lynhorton.net/category/art/2019/). Individual photographs were traced along a dividing line placed on a 15 inch by 11 inch piece of paper. The same traced image was then flipped and positioned in the other side of the…

• 30 Simples, Late Summer, 2020

  These drawings are the products of discerning the language value of drawn images of branch sections and groupings, some of them stemming from my imagination.

Through innumerable life changes, I have survived only by living here. It is now 2020. The collective global society is going through a vast economic, emotional tempest due to…

• All Tied Up Series, 2019-20

  This series was started in the Fall of 2019. The branches are trimmings from a winter-killed holly bush and cuttings from two apple trees by my terrace. The series will continue slowly as I collect new branches. They carry on from earlier installation pieces done in my studio in 2018. My intention is to highlight…
