During my Tiny Birch Residency I will continue to make organic materials and bioplastics with local plant species for my ongoing series "The texture of my survival." I plan to use the environment for texture photography as part of my digital work and my prints on translucent fabrics. Tiny Birch's natural setting will greatly enrich my project by opening new universes and possibilities. - Lucia Rivero
