sugar blossom

A scan of a sugar cane blossom, text from a indexical card
at the picture library of the NYPL and photo of my mother
from the late 50's. Lines, surfaces and a jumble of proverbs.
Proverbs was the seminal book in my childhood worshipping
time. I guess the reference for sweet is also there I wanted to
make this one beautiful, feminine and soft. Like a gentle warm breeze
contrasting it with bible text that is seemingly anti-feminine and
filled with hateful comments regarding "she" and "her".
