For the series "They Once Flew," discarded feathers that once propelled birds and the wings from deceased cicadas gain new life when used to create cyanotypes on paper. Darkening the cyanotype with tea serves to communicate the grief in loss of flight; spraying them with gold conveys new energy, rebirth, and adds movement to the abstracted compositions.
