Title
Dahlia’s (For The Pink Moon), VI
Description

Monotype on Somerset satin, white 300 gsm. paper.

Signed, dated and titled by the artist.

Co-edition with KARMA.

This unique series of 11 monotypes entitled Dahlia’s (For the Pink Moon) captures moments rooted in the artist’s memories, personal experiences, and inspirations. Whenever Craven paints flowers, they are depicted in one of her mother’s crystal vases, and in this series of prints, the vase sits on top of a stool with a background of the moon rising, an ever-present symbol in the artist’s lexicon.

The flowers represent an ongoing conversation with her mother and are a way of bringing her along on the journey of the artist’s life. In these works, the artist also reflects on the artist Marsden Hartley, who painted flowers in vases often with a background of curtains and the sea, both personal symbols for Hartley, as the moon and vases are for Craven.
