For my environmental/media art piece, I chose to gather and arrange a seasonal bouquet. I have always thought of Valentine's Day as a media-driven holiday in which we (as consumers) feel pressure to buy things. Well, instead of buying a traditional bouquet that was grown in a greenhouse, I decided to make an arrangement out of things that are already around. I used holly, balsam, white pine, oak, marigolds, and other assorted perennials and tied it together with a nice flexible piece of birch bark, fastened with hemp fiber.
