​Sarah Chase has created over one thousand visual art pieces composed entirely of botanicals gathered in nature. A few years ago, she began a daily practice of walking into the garden and forest to gather leaves, flowers, and bits of growing things. Each morning, she lays them out on a black book and designs a creation. They often become dancers, birds, or animals. Everything seems to be in motion—an endless ballet. The markings, textures, and shapes in plants and flowers reflect a myriad of living creatures. They inherently have motion, costume, and drama. Each morning, she marvels at the limitless choreography of nature. This daily practice has resulted in a unique and moving art show you won't want to miss.
