A Diary of Flowers – Just Black
1993
A Diary of Flowers – Just Black consists of 26 napkins rendered in black ink and arranged in a grid-like formation with pins. Hodges delicately drew floral motifs on each disposable paper napkin, transforming humble, everyday materials into an intimate and poetic record of observation. The work evokes themes of transience, memory, and the beauty found in ordinary, ephemeral objects.
