A Soft Spot depicts Bleeding Heart/Lamprocapnos spectabilis with Dryad’s Saddle/Polyporous squamosus and oyster mushrooms. Bleeding Hearts are one of the first flowers of spring; their emergence often coincides with that of the fungi Dryad’s Saddle. Part of the New Herbarium series, my interpretation of the practice of preserving and presenting plants. Inspiration for this series came from Emily Dickinson’s Herbarium.
