Flowers are calling your name is the result of a ritual.

This body of work showcases six large paintings, structured around two monumental flowers that dominate each canvas. The flowers, executed in oil paint, are magnified beyond their natural scale, transcending their fragility to become forces of presence.

The gestural brushstrokes keep the eye moving across the canvas, making the pieces feel alive, while the layered compositions and subtle textures evoke a sense of quietness — like a memory surfacing, shifting between presence and dissolution, movement and stasis. A recurring color palette anchors the work, featuring dark backgrounds, burnt umber, pyrrole red, phthalo green, and shades of cream white. While some pieces vibrate with the richness of these layered colors, making the flowers stand out dramatically, others — such as Lyrics and Left Unsaid — adopt a more minimal approach: a spectral presence emerging from the mysterious world of the night.

If natureinspired motifs have been a recurring subject in her practice, this body of work isn’t just a depiction of flowers’ fleeting beauty — her work is intentionally confrontational. The scale demands viewers to step back and take them in from a distance. Lucy is seeking a pulse, a body buzz. Lucy’s studio practice began in the wake of loss. What started as an instinctive response to grief became a lifelong devotion — a way to alchemize feelings and confront mortality. Created between the summer of 2024 and the winter of 2025, “Flowers are calling your name” is her language of resilience, a way to both defy and embrace the impermanence of things.
