Michal Florence Schorro

I am interested in the structures of urban spaces; gardens as sites of community and social justice; and, more intimately, plants and places as carriers of memories and identity.
Developed over an extended time period, I often work with extensive series of images that incorporate repetition. This allows me to reflect upon and experience themes such as processes of belonging and natural cycles and to focus on my connections to all living things sourrounding me.
