Reception: 5:00-8:00 p.m. Friday, May 16, 2025
work navigates the unseen forces that shape our connection to the earth—currents of memory, ecology, and devotion. Through a ritualistic practice of foraging, seed cultivation, and material transformation, she unearths the sacred resonance within the land. Working with ceramics—earth shaped by fire—her pieces embody cycles of rupture and renewal, permanence and impermanence.
In collaboration with the NEIU greenhouse, Ladsariya nurtures seeds as symbols of radical transformation, holding within them both ancestry and possibility. Cyanotypes (sunprints) further extend this dialogue, capturing traces of botanical forms and ephemeral gestures through the interplay of light and time. These collaged works, map an intuitive process of assemblage—where fragments of nature, history, and memory converge.
