The seed of Lindsey Erin Larsen-Myer’s mixed-media floral creations for her new exhibit “We Have a Story to Tell” was planted years ago while she was studying vanitas and allegorical paintings of the 16th and 17th centuries.
“Vanitas are the floral designs and still lifes with the skulls, and the allegorical paintings were full of florals and things that conveyed moral messages to people,” said Larsen-Myer, known professionally as Lindsey Erin. “And I remember sitting in a lecture hall coming up with the notion of contemporizing this concept.”
