Leigh Ann Beavers
Inattention Correction (Whitethorn)

Inattention Correction (Whitethorn), is an ongoing, mixed-media project centered around a small, ubiquitous tree—the whitethorn—found in Irish hedgerows and gardens. Through a varied series of creative inquiry, Beavers explores the whitethorn’s color, form, and context. Her work underscores the simple observation that this is just one of 8.7 million species in the world. In her statement, she notes, “My work is a quiet signal of distress, asking viewers to notice the other life around them.”
