Wearable Botanicals
n 2026, I began experimenting with bringing cyanotype off the paper and onto clothing, and it quickly became an exciting new direction in my creative practice. Working primarily with secondhand and vintage garments, I started transforming everyday pieces into one-of-a-kind wearable art using light, botanical forms, and a process that never produces quite the same result twice. I loved the idea of giving clothing another life while creating something that felt both artistic and practical.
What started as an experiment grew into a collection of pieces that found their way into closets near and far. I sold dozens of garments and was featured as a spotlight artist at Spotlight Vintage in St. Albans, Vermont, a shop specializing in high-quality vintage clothing along the route connecting Montréal, Burlington, and Boston. Seeing my work alongside thoughtfully curated vintage pieces felt like a natural fit and an exciting milestone.
Wearable Botanicals continues to be a way for me to explore the relationship between art, clothing, and the materials we already have around us. Each garment carries a little of its own history, with a new layer added through the cyanotype process.
