Green: steel, tomato vine, enamel mixed with snow (48"x30"x12")
Picture
Green addresses the spaces and systems that we inhabit, and that shape takes form in the suggestion of a corset tied together by tomato vine. One wrinkled, dehydrated tomato rests precariously at the end of the vine to evoke a timelessness of evaluating women for their form and literally fitting them into a set space. With the declining state of the planet, the two aspects of feminism and environmental health are intertwined. 
"Garon employs decaying natural artifacts primarily as symbols of humanity's fragility. But her contrasts of hard and soft intrigue the eye as well as the mind." -Mark Jenkins, The Washington Post
