“There is a tree native to Australia that grows next to my house in Los Angeles. The Latin name is Syzygium Australe. It has these red/purple berries that are like small cherries. When they fall to the ground they stain the cement purple. I’ve always loved it when plants colored the monotonous infrastructures of a city. So I collected the fruit and made my own stains onto watercolor paper.”
