On March 28, 2021, Jeffrey created these assemblages, announcing them as his first artworks created on the Payne Gap property. Just in case you haven’t figured it out, they are fabric flowers he found in a weathered heap of cemetery trash. He attached the found grave flowers to prickly pears. They are nearly believable, and I like the fusion of the two, artificial with real. I took these pictures at night with light from Jeffrey’s camera, which adds a little drama.
